Its got 4 exceptional songs, the rest are also-surfs. I can accept him being a bit of a wanker if his songs are good, and half the time they are, but he clings to alot of really shit attempts at experimentation that undermine the perfectly bratty and hummable tunes.

Okay so TheFoxBen put a gun on my temple and said I should listen to it so I did. I found it boring... not horrible but plain boring. Nothing really interesting going on (except in Mickey Mouse, which is a good song, but which I knew since the demo was unleashed last year... so no new thing), sounds trivial to my ears. Not atrocious, but not good either in my opinion. I'd give it a 5/10, 4 if Mickey Mouse wasn't on it ...

I don't like it because I make better surf noise pop than this guy. I'm just from Ohio and irony went out with the strokes.

There's no beach here to be king of

Though I will say the ARTWORK is beautiful. I love it.

My friends who just broke up, The Flux Capacitors, also make better 'surf' music.

recordings suck though, they are way loud, or were loud, live. Goddamn near sonic youth volume levels

Just listened to this. I managed to persevere for 4 songs. It's fucking awful.

I always thought Wavvves was overrated esp after hearing his last album, but I'll give the new one a listen

It sucks, here I said it for the 32023012013 time to you or something ben.

Seriously it's one of the blandest, overated, copying records I heard in a while.

Certainly nothing ground breaking, but whatever. I think it's a fun, catchy and pretty enjoyable listen. There are some cool guitar sounds on there too, and I just usually enjoy most bands that are even a little bit 'surfy'. I mean, granted this isn't like straight-up, Dick Dale style surf guitar, but the vibe is there, and I like that.

i love best coast but i don't like wavvvvvvvvvvvvves.

I just don't know why the word "surf" is ever thrown at this guy. I would hate someone into, like, Man or Astroman or something, to accidentally listen to bland poorly-written Blink-182/GReen Day wannabe pop. I highly doubt this guy could even play surf music. I understand there's a "Surf vibe", whatever that means, but I don't think lyrical content alone is enough to call the band SURF.

...Anyway, if anyone happens to like this garbage, you're in luck -- there are tons of bland, dull, safe, polished, generic bands who can barely play a power chord, that are out there. Enjoy!

You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to automatic bzooty again.

Can I have some rep, since I said it first? Hahaha.

Foxben says: "Yeah, I guess it is quite hated on this board."

Nah, dude, it's quite hated on the entire internet.

nah man, pitchfork gave it a 8.4 ahahah

Don't get to greedy you, and I can't rep you also

I was just kidding, Lou.

Anyway, Pocahaunted just broke up. RIP.

whhhhaaaaaaaaaaaat? where'd you see that?

edit-nvm I see it now. Damn!

oh yeah, Wavves. Exactly one good song, "So Bored". The new one is garbage.

ok so i actually REALLY don't like this.

sounds so done-before, and i find it really quite boring..... shame really.

so heard the record today and was really underwhelmed by it. The songs either sound like bland garage pop or instantly forgettable. Mickey Mouse was only good bc it has an mgmt vibe to it. What a waste of time listening to this was.

Damm, now only Bethany gets mine loving.

Not too shocking, but definitely a shame, since Make It Real was my favorite work by them, next to Mirror Mics.
