Wavves: Live on KEXP

3:10 p.m. · August 31, 2010 · by Chris Bosman

KEXP is a staple of the Pacific Northwest indie scene, notable for its work in helping launch the budding careers of a lot of alt-rock bands, specifically those in the early 90s grunge scene. It's totally appropriate then, to hear Wavves performing in-studio for them, given the overlap between the two sounds. Hell, "King of the Beach" would have been a staple in the station's rotation during that era, with its wall of buzzsaw guitars and buried but insatiable hooks. Check out the four-song set, mostly from the 2010 Wavves album King of the Beach, here. [Fader]
