If you have heard of Wavves by now, you are probably as stoked as I am for Nathan Williams sophmore record to come out in August. After watching this video posted on Vimeo from the recording sessions in Oxford, Mississippi, I am reeeeeeally excited. The new sound is trademark Wavves, but noticeably refined and polished just enough to retain fans of the ultra-lo-fi sound while picking up more ears in the white wash. As Nathan says, “I do it for myself, I don’t know if that’s selfish but I wanna make songs that sound cool to me.” Whoever you are doing it for Nathan, we love it and can’t wait for the full album (btw I’ve heard it, it is amazing, and yes I will be buying it on vinyl.)
