ROCK AND ROLLLLLLLLLLLLLL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! some major lo-fi indie rock mayhem went down on friday night this is halarious. Luckily, Pitchfork was on it like white on rice and has all the juicy deatils. Article.
I just feel a little bad for Wavves to be honest. All the other lo-fi rock bands hate him. I dunno, he seems like a chill dude to me? I like Wavves, i think his music is pretty cool. But like its just this poor 20-something year old guy who for some reason has all these big bad bands after his head. Black Lips obviously hate him, apparently the dudes from Psychedelic Horseshit hate his guts and think hes garbage too. I mean whatever, but like what did Wavves ever do to anybody. its not like his songs have flame-spewing lyrics calling out all the other lo-fi indie noise rock bands? all his songs are about smoking herb and doing nothing. Im just a little wierded out because i like wavves, but i like black lips too, and i like psychedelic horseshit too. am i some kind of indie rock fan traitor? whatever this whole situation is really funny, and i think its awesome that indie rock has some beef and some drama to pep things up from time to time. someones always got to be the badass so many thanks to black lips to stepping up to the plate and keeping things interesting. but ANYYYYWAYSSSS
Heres Wavves' self titled album from 08. its loud noisy lo-fi scuzz melodic rock. i think its pretty decent. check it.
AND here is Black Lips most recent album, 200 million thousand. I guess some people have dubbed them 'flower punk'. which makes some sense i guess. Its kind of lo-fi rock/post-punk, with a definite 60's psychedelic feel. Its also pretty cool. LEEESTEN
