Wails’ self titled debut EP is everything that one could ask for in a post-punk, shoegaze record. The Houston trio puts it all together with strong songs, strong playing, strong vocals and production that perfectly frames the delivery of the music. I find myself listening to this EP over and over. The songs range from hard edged to softer power pop. Breathy vocals deliver lyrics which have something to say on every track. This record is very easy to sum up…Love It, Love It, Love It. What else is there to say. Go get this one now on Wails’ Bandcamp site. The link below will take you to the demo Next Time Around that the band recently posted and also to the stream and download for the Wails EP.
