today a track by wavves, a san diego project led by nathan williams. i like san diego. i kinda thought it was a nathan williams solo type gig, but alas it appears there is a band (which now consists of a few members of jay reatards former band, which all quit i think because they felt jay was a real a-hole). wavves has experienced some public controversy in the past year, the first being a performance in spain where the performance sort of fell apart and the crowd reacted quite unfavorably. then williams broke his arm, but still rocked out at the pitchfork fest earlier this summer (redemption!). then he got into some sort of fight with jared swilley of the black lips. jared got hit with a bottle (but not by a member of wavves) after talking some shizz because apparently he doesnt like nathan for some reason. i think hes mad that wavves didnt have to resort to vomiting on stage and urinating on eachother in their early days to catch a following. ill let you do some internet research to find the stories on all these stories.
i really like the surfer sounds of todays track “cool jumper”. i believe its a track off some sort of upcoming album, which would be the third from wavves. kind of makes me want to go to san diego and have a party on the beach or something. but then again i almost always want to go to san diego and have a party on the beach.
