Life Sux..

            Wavves’s newest EP “life sux”

An all new Wavves for the start of the ending of 2011. Switching to a low label ”ghost ramp” instead of “fatpossom” who released they’re last LP. This 5 track EP 6 tracks if you buy it on iTunes. Has a couple of collaborations such as “Best Coast” and “Fucked Up” This EP has a distinct and obvious 90s vibe to it, with songs like “I Wanna Meet Dave Grohl” and “Poor Lenore”. I had a very mixed feeling about the album at first. I’ll put a link bellow, of what I said about it on last.fm. I’m the 1st comment by the way. But songs Such as “Bug”, “Destroy” and “I wanna meet Dave Grohl” sounded like they went to band practice and sent it to pressing! The [live] song “In The Sand” from the iTunes bonus track had the exact same quality, so it’s possible they might have just winged it! I didn’t get to much into the lyrics. Wavves isn’t exactly known for they’re lyrics. I really enjoyed “Poor Lenore” it was like I was a little kid again listening to the radio. 

 I’d give it a 2.5 out 5                                     <3
