Ballsy move this.

why ballsy?

That depends on which hipster you ask.
Some consider Wavves, the project of 22 year old skateboarder Nathan Williams, to have recieved a stellar amount of hype in the past year that correlates disproportionately to his talents.

Others recognise his talents like a celebrity Chef recognizes the potential taste of a good recipe:
first create psychedelic pop punk tunes that bring to mind a blend of early Nirvana and Descendents. Give them a skin-graft of Doo Wop: a sprinkling of 50s girl group sounds...The Ronettes for instance.
Then pulverise the two togetherin that No-Wave, Noise-Bath meatgrinder popularised by No Age*
yum.

these are tunes that, upon first hearing, one of the two promoters of this gig was heard to say 'my goodness me, this is catchier than Blink 182'.

there's a Wavve of hype young Mr. Williams is surfing fer sure, but deservedly so. When the tide goes out 20 years from now, tunes like No Hope Kids (see below) and 'So Bored' will remain bouyant because Pop tunes this agreeable will float no matter the era.

same way that Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure still makes for great viewing to this very day.
