Pitchfork Interviews Sweet Valley


Sweet Valley is a cool new project from Nathan Williams and his brother Joel or “Kynan” eh I don’t know Pitchfork is confusing. Anywho, the group unleashes some nasty beats, showcasing Nathan’s love for hip hop, which hasn’t been as prevalent in his mainstay, Wavves. Their debut is entitled Stay Calm and will be released by Fool’s Gold on August 7, 2012. Check out this Pitchfork interview at the link below.

P.S. Nathan gives us the skinny on the next Wavves LP: “The new record is already done– we just finished mixing. I think it’s a lot bigger sounding than King of the Beach or Life Sux. I guess it’s more geared towards 90s big chords.”

Flashback: Black Lips Live in New Orleans (1/25/05)


Some classic footage of our favorite rock ‘n’ roll band Black Lips at the Cirle Bar in New Orleans, LA (Ian’s hometown!) from Janurary 25, 2005. I believe they were on tour with The King Khan & BBQ Show, in fact you can catch the dynamic duo in some of the crowd shots from these videos. Damn, I’d give my left nut to have seen both bands just one night on that tour!
