Wavves – Sinking Feeling
It doesnβt happen often, nowadays, that a band leaves a gap of a few years between releases. Nathan Williamsβs project Wavves just did π.
His latest album Youβre Welcome dates from 2017. A few one-off singles followed, but then, things went quiet. Until now, for Wavves are back with Sinking Feeling. A far cry from the punky rock songs the band produced earlier, this is a track with summer vibes. The acoustic guitars, that alternate with electric surf guitar notes, give it a relaxed feel. It hasnβt always sounded this way however. The original version, released in 2014 by the bandβs guitarist Alex Gatez, was a way more trippy affair.
βSinking Feeling is a song about a wave of depression that keeps coming backβ, Nathan Williams said in a statement. βItβs that sinking feeling that drags you down and no matter what you do or where you go it follows you.”
The track was produced by TV on the Radioβs Dave Sitek.
