#FastSong 15: King of the Beach by Wavves. Monday is sizzling with beach music, beach weather and bacon.

 

Hello and happy Monday!  Did all your weekend wishes come true?  Fun week planned here at FastSongs… I’ll be checking out Fidlar on Thursday and I’ll finish work on a song for Farmer John’s Bacon: An 80s style metal ballad, like a love song to bacon.  Okay, not the height of art, but “Be My Bacon Baby” was a lot of fun to record.  Shout out to my buddy Gabe Deutsch from Battery Amp for providing the power vocals.

But enough about me!  Tell me what you’re doing?  I am ever so lonely, and would love some feedback.  But failing that, my wish for you is to be King of the Motherf***ing Beach, Office, State Park, Nail Salon, Desalination Plant, or homeless shelter you happen to be in.  And make this super, groovy, aggressive gem of a song by Wavves your soundtrack!

No it’s not too early… Cheap Beer by FIDLAR

 

Enough BS nostalgia! Cheap Beer by Fidlar is brand new – released in January 2013 – and about as good as it gets for yours truly. I mean, listen to it. It’s just all out. I’m loving the record… It’s classic garage punk with a little surf and though Cheap Beer is a stand-out track, it’s all really catchy. It warms my heart to hear the kids still embracing this sound with so much gusto. I feel like I have truly earned this record after taking in so many bland hipster acts in the last year. They’re playing May 16 here in LA and you can bet I’ll be there to bring you the news.
