Music Review: Wavves – Wavvves
Blogcritics.org
The solo musician’s sophomore album Wavvves follows in the same vein as the 2008 self-titled debut. I think it would be safe to assume the title for the subsequent third album. Punk music has had a huge impact on Williams and it is reflective in Wavves especially with the pseudo-garage rock low-fi sound that’s permeated by some non-harsh noise rock. It’s an interesting mixture particularly since Williams seems to have eschewed modern technology for his old school analog beats despite the noise being more in the realm of electronica rather than industrial. The opening “Rainbow Everywhere” has sort of a cosmic techno feel that rides like a wave through space (unfortunately pun intended). It helps set the stage for the rest of the LP which constantly feels like both the music and you are moving forward.

jpg” >Skate rat turned professional musician Trevor Andrew of the band Trouble Andrew is putting electronic surf-crunk-rock on the map with his debut album titled “Remixed & Remastered. “The album features a variety of sounds that Andrew has heard and loved throughout his years as a skateboarder and snowboarder. Most of the tracks on the album feature fast bass lines that have been influenced by a compilation of lively punk-rock and a range of new wave music. Take the track “Bang Bang” featuring Santigold for example. The song opens up with a frenzied bass line accompanied by an equally fast snare and thumping drumbeat. Sanitgold was actually the person that turned Andrew to music. While cooped up in Santigold’s house on a skating injury Andrew tried various guitars a drum machine and keyboards.
