2009: The Year Of The Consonant? New WAVVES LP In February March

IMPORTANT UPDATE: Fat Possum has picked up the new album, which now has a release date of March 17. Destijl is no longer releasing it.

Nathan Daniel William's distorted art-surf-pop group, WAVVES has already been called out by the ever-observant online music community (no link, find it yourself people) for superfluous consonant use last year. Including us: Gumshoe talked about WAVVES in his year-end write-up (TMT Feature), and Jspicer wrote about WAVVES for our year-end Eureka! list.

It appears that 2009 will be more of the same, as WAVVES is scheduled to release the follow-up to their Woodsist self-titled debut. The sophomore LP is to be called WAVVVVES (yes, three "V"s -- two more than the correct spelling of the word and one more than the correct spelling of the group name). Look for the record February 3 on De Stijl, but don't confuse it with the debut LP, as it has very similar artwork. No one said being a music fan was always easy; if it was, it would be called sitting on the couch.

Look for WAVVES on tour all over the world this February and March.
