Slickness isn't really a concern for Mr. Williams, a one-man band from San Diego who records as Wavves, but crispness is. His terrific album, teems with scrappy, energetic, summery chunks of noisy pop: smart-aleckyness via Weezer, cooing via the Beach Boys, all masked by digital effects and a thick garage-rock haze...
Wavves are a lo-fi punk band who self-released an LP in 2008 and since then have gained notable media attention from the likes of Pitchfork, Uncut and NME. Nathan Daniel Williams (who is Wavves) creates waves of effortlessly great slacker / crust / beach-punk, compressed onto 4 track cassettes in his San Diego bedroom.
