Wavves – You’re Welcome LP Vinyl Record (Limited Edition Blue Vinyl)

Wavves – You’re Welcome LP Vinyl Record (Limited Edition Blue Vinyl)

The word ‘brat’ has followed Nathan Williams around for almost a decade, but at the age of 30, with a fully-fledged business to his name, as well as the ongoing success of band Wavves, his rebellious streak has proven not just purposeful but pretty damn inspiring. “You’re Welcome” is the soundtrack to this new lease of freedom. It’s Williams’ tongue-in-cheek rebirth as a self-released, self-actualized, self-promoting punk kingpin, and despite putting his money where his uncensored mouth is, he’s emerged not just unscathed but with the upper hand. Williams took himself into producer Dennis Herring’s (King Of The Beach) studio in Downtown LA, and for the first time since the early records worked regular office hours and almost entirely alone. 

“You’re Welcome” is mostly comprised of Williams’ oddball, sample-led brainstorms. He came up with 40 tracks, now whittled down to twelve, fat-free punk zingers. A sample nerd, Williams delved into his obsession with 1950s doo-wop and – surprisingly – international folk, including Cambodian pop and ’70’s psychedelia from South America. The results make for one of the most diverse and intricate Wavves records yet. “Come To The Valley” contains a Phil Spector meets Beach Boys ’60s high school dance vibe, whereas title track “You’re Welcome” riffs on sound effects that could almost originate from Bizarro World, never mind Cambodia. Nathan Williams never went away, but now he’s made sure he’s here to stay for longer. And for that, “You’re Welcome”.
