It's a weird mashup of depression and some other, more hopeful emotion
some people seem to like it more than Somewhere tho so give it a try
Man, I wish the untitled 7'' were longer, that was like their best sound ever

i don't really like the wave bands anymore, they all make an impact initially but over time i realize they're sorta meh. but at least jordan can write songs, so i should try again with this.

"yeee but this is a lot more subdued."
Yeah that's why I like it better. It's also a lot more varied than Somewhere... I find.

duh
|

yeah they do anarchist. it's really all about how they create music in support of their vox/lyrics. i mean they don't sound exactly alike but they definitely share a certain common approach.
|

i mean listen to to the lack long after and if you can't hear defeater in them then you've never heard defeater.

he has a point, the bands are put into the category because of the approach/vox. I for one find every band part of 'the
wave' awesome, I like how each one writes diverse music with awesome lyrics. I personally find a lot of this sites more
elitist skramz is really samey and boring to me, I mean I like some it but the waves bands each have something really
unique about them. I for one love La Dispute's sound and approach, I also love Defeater a lot and I like Pianos Become the
Teeth and Touche as well.

they're really just the newest iteration of semi-popular post-hardcore music, and i'm not going to argue about which genres they are or aren't a part of. idk, the sf scene (loma, punch, beau navire) is definitely better imo.

Album Rating: 3.0
yeah they do have similarities and influence each other, but they still stand in different genres. although they all do fit somewhat under the large 'hardcore' umbrella
I have 6 'wave' albums rated and they're all at 3 or 3.5. Not sure if coincidence or not

I heard Loma Prieta's new one in full on youtube, some of what they did on it is fucking outstanding but imo there wasn't much variety at all and I kinda felt like some songs were just there to be there but idk. I also really think that lyrically some of the wave bands are outstanding despite what some people on this site think. I haven't heard punch or beau navire though
|

lol genres. its not a matter of genre or style, they're connected by a shared audience, work ethic, and commitment to emotional hardcore music. regardless of genre, that's why they're considered part of a scene without any of them being from the same city or playing the same style.

What I love so much about these bands are their lyrics and melodies. For example I actually love Dreyer's style and clever metaphors, just as much as I love Defeater's smart and compelling sense of story telling through their songs.
