When I first heard this record, I felt like it was going to be my album of the summer. The weather didn't last, but I haven't been able to stop listening to 'King of the Beach' by Wavves.
It's a much more polished affair than his last two albums, but that feels like a natural progression given that his music is influenced by the sounds of Motown and Phil Spector produced girl groups. Whilst fusing that with garage rock isn't exactly a new approach, much like the Dum Dum Girls and Best Coast albums from this year, there are so many catchy melodies and enough of a new twist to keep it interesting. Enjoy!

Thanks for the recommendation. Is the entire album as upbeat as this track?
ReplyDeleteThat's probably the most upbeat, but there are a few that are close.
