Details
"Bizarre and blistering Afro-Pop crossbred with precise and chilly New Wave," Weave!'s debut breathes new life into the sound of groups like ESG, The Slits, The Mo-Dettes, Kleenex, The Raincoats, and Delta 5. The arty grinders have a respectable pedigree; Weave!'s founders, Ivory Lee Carlson (bass, vocals) and Nicole Turley (drums, vocals), spent 2007 with pickup members from around their native Los Angeles. Weave! ultimately solidified their lineup with members of The Centimeters and Bubonic Plague (on guitar and keyboard) adding a rhythmic presence to the femme-driven fervency. They've been playing a lot around Los Angeles lately, including well attended month-long residency at The Echo. Their Self-Titled Debut is available on CD and Clear Vinyl LP. "A tambourine-ravaging set of Sonic Youth-meets- Talking Heads-tinged sounds. The local quartet definitely inject a sense of quirky fun into their hypnotic, dance-y yet vicious tunes." -Lina Lecaro, LA Weekly "Resembles a frantic yet exuberant tug-of-rope contest between George Clinton and David Byrne." -Travis Woods, webinfront.net "Extremely rhythmic and, at times, deliciously poppy their strange mix of guitars, drums, and synth retains a haunting edge." -Phil Kropoth, Flavorpill LA
