I've been tracking Ces Cru 's gradual ascendence on Kansas City's hip hop scene at There Stands the Glass for over five years. I was happy for the duo when they signed to Strange Music. It's the big break they deserve. So what does Ces Cru rap about about on the new album Constant Energy Struggles ? They rap about about the big break they deserve. The dominant subject matter of the album is disappointing. I have limited tolerance for self-absorbed careerist raps. The first five songs [...]

To an extent, your opinion of California's Wavves will perpetually be stuck on their breakthrough album,  King of the Beach . Was it a hyper-active party filled with ruckus you regretted the morning after or was it the landmark memory of an amazing summer? Either way, in the past three years, Wavves has been a rock band that has suffered too many retrospective discussions. They had the not-so-stellar follow-up EP, Life Sux , which inadvertently informed many listeners that the party was getting lame. Which meant, [...]

Having been dubbed a “crafty veteran” by one local bystander, there are a few certain truths that I have discovered seven years deep into South By South West culture. 1) Always carry your phone charger because the battery will die; the ABC’s (Always Be Chargin’) as we here at Spinning Platters like to call it.

The SOTO inbox is always full of cool stuff that never gets to see the light of day on the actual site, and I’d like to change that.  So, every Friday I’ll be posting the best album streams and videos that were sent my way during the week.  Take a scroll and find something worth remembering.

Genereation Y accepts a lot of things these days, and WAVVES have most definitely captured that in their new clip for the track ‘Afraid Of Heights’. If you’ve seen the film clip for WAVVES track ‘Sail To The Sun’, you may have noticed that their clips have become little more, controversial over time. Remember back when they first released ‘King Of The Beach’? It was just Nathan Williams and co. hanging out on a beach, smoking a bit of dope and playing video games. Harmless fun right? Now [...]

Last night Nathan Williams brought his depressing yet catchy tunes to late night telly with his band Wavves . Bringing along a performance of "Demon to Lean On" to the Ed Sullivan theater and the Late Show with David Letterman the performance was raw and on point. The track features on the newly released album, Afraid of Heights. When the guitars are left to let rip this performance rocks, but I'm not quite sold on Nathan with minimal backing, maybe it was an off day. Still rather enjoyed it though. See what you [...]

photo by Dave Lichterman Divine Fits tore it up on late night TV's Jimmy Kimmel Live! with their own "Like Ice Cream" and a cover of Tom Petty's "You Got Lucky". Even though Britt Daniel seemed like he was forgetting the words at one point, the performance is the kind of powerhouse one, complete with a creative cover (which they've been doing lots of recently), that we have begun to expect from the band. The kind of performance that, combined with repeated rewarding listens to A [...]

Wavves tocan "Demon to Lean On" en Late Show with David Letterman Ayer por la noche, Nathan Williams y los poderosos Wavves hicieron su primer aparición en Late Show with David Letterman . En apoyo a su excelente nuevo disco, Afraid of Heights , la banda de San Diego, California, ejecutó el tema " Demon to Lean On ". Checa la repetición a continuación.

Nathan Williams y Stephen Pope en su debut televisivo Para el debut televisivo de Wavves , ninguna canción pudo quedar mejor que "Demon To Lean On” de su nuevo álbum Afraid of Heights . Después del colapso que tuvo Nathan Williams en el festival Primavera Sound hace unos años, da gusto ver el rumbo que ha tomado con su proyecto. Acompañado de su siempre fiel amigo, Stephen Pope , Williams llevó esta canción al set de David Letterman anoche.

We had some gentle fun at Wavves' expense yesterday, but even we have to admit that his new album,  Afraid of Heights , is a whole lot better than his earlier work, mainly because he's actually bothered to write songs this time around. Still, we do have one gripe about the album, namely the fact that it took us no time at all to tick the weed reference off our bingo card — it takes precisely one minute and 14 seconds for Nathan Williams to sing "first we gotta get high." Yes, people, this may shock you, but [...]

Wavves brought their grunge to the late night stage last night, performing "Demon to Lean On" on David Letterman. Nathan Williams' voice seems smoother than normal in the performance, and bassist Stephen Pope steals the show with his Metallica tie-dyed cutoff and his kickass headbanging abilitiy. Even Dave seemed to enjoy it, and not in an ironic David Letterman way. Wavves' stellar new album, Afraid of Heights is out now via Mom + Pop

Wavves are busy supporting their new album Afraid of Heights , and last night the rockers stopped by the "Late Show with David Letterman". The band played their new track "Demon To Lean On" and like most of their live performances, guitarist Stephen Pope absolutely kills it. Watch their appearance above. ( CoS )

Four takeaways from Wavves' performance of the Afraid Of Heights single " Demon To Lean On " on last night's episode of the Late Show With David Letterman , which marked the band's late-night TV debut: 1. Nathan Williams has a better live singing voice than most of us have given him credit for. 2. Some Letterman producer should've forced the audience to mosh; a Wavves performance with no moshpit just doesn't look right. 3. I would be a happier person if I owned bassist Stephen Pope's tie-dyed, sleeves-cut-off Justice For All Metallica [...]

Rating: 3 out of 5 stars Nathan Williams, better known as Wavves , may have crossed your radar at some point, be it through the media realm of the indie music world, or through his music; either way, Wavves is one of the most buzzed about bands. Back in 2010 he released a full length album, which seemed to take the buzz to a whole new level and his relationship with Best Coast ’s Bethany Cosentino made for his place as the title within his 2010 release: [...]

Wavves -  Afraid of Heights : 2013 Afraid of Heights , the third album from Wavves, opens tranquilly, like someone slowly awakening from a dream. At first blush, it sounds like the audio equivalent of a haircut and a resume. Could it be? Nathan Williams all grown up? Please. Wavves fans needn’t worry about things getting too serious just yet. This is still Nathan Williams we’re talking about. His sneer soon “kills the vibe” and is talking about getting high and sailing to the sun. But the album’s first [...]
