"Coasting is a new duo -- as in, they've been a band for like a week -- from Brooklyn that recently befriended us on myspace. These two (Fiona & Madison) make blistering, distorted blasts of simple/catchy fuzz-pop that you may be into if you feel like WAVVES' drums 'aren't blown out enough.'"Now, if you're like me you probably thought that the quote above came via some sort of indie rock equiva...

By Amrit Singh & Brandon StosuyOn Friday we shook off the early-morning cobwebs and made a beeline to the Pitchfork/Windish Bash in time to catch the last couple tracks by psychedelic post-Vanishing Voice Brooklynites Woods on the outside stage (as far as labels go, this was undeniably the year of the Woodsist) and School Of Seven Bells on the inside. And, speaking again of Woodsist, we saw Wav...

[photo by surfgoth]When we reported that Wavves had added a ToddP date at the end of March, Todd’s site had March 29 (Sunday) listed. Cake Shop has always had Sunday March 29 listed on their calendar. Unfortunately, several blogs (including Pitchfork and More Cowbell) have listed March 28 for the Cake Shop show [...]

When we last caught up with Mr. Reatard, his band had quit on him and he was not pleased about it.

Daytrotter just posted up their latest session with Wavves and even have a new track recorded. It’s listed as “Horse Sholes” but he called it “Poker Face” on the previously recorded set by Ray Conception. Well, whatever Nathan wants to call it is ok by me. Check “To The Dregs” + whatever this song is [...]

Having cancelled their European tour earlier this year and recruited the skills of ex-Hella drummer Zach Hill, Wavves will finally be bringing his own brand of scuzzy lo-fi pop to the UK next month.

Pitchfork's glee in detailing Black Lips singer Jared Swilley's criticism of the Wavves' Nathan Williams was nothing short of breathtaking.In a news story this week Pitchfork details an interview Swilley gives with Norwegian radio station NRK about Williams' recent public breakdown at the Primavera festival in Spain."He needs to go back to school or move back in with his parents and sit down an...

Right HERE is a new song from San Diego's Wavves. Nathan Williams posted it to his blog along with this picture of stoned Garfield with a Bart Simpson tat, a watch set to 4:20, and a Stussy logo I thought had been forgotten in '93. Nice to see it again.Anyways let's watch the video of when they took ecstasy, valium and xanax on stage again. It's funny.(Nathan if you don't like that send me an e...

I think I prefer the unreleased “Mickey Mouse” to the two new Wavves tracks that have surfaced in the last few days via Nathan Williams’ Ghost Ramp blog. The Wavves frontman’s new music with drummer Zach Hill has yet to trump anything on his debut. However, Williams assures that the live video he posted of [...]

Wavves have had a pretty rough Summer, what with frontman Nathan Williams' Primavera meltdown and subsequent UK tour cancellation all taking place within just a few days of each-other. Many thought that this could've been it for the troubled pair but instead of succumbing to the woes of drug-fueled onstage nonsense, the twosome are in fact coming back in force with ten recently rescheduled UK
