Limited edition transparent green double colour vinyl housed in gatefold sleeve. Gorgeous and lush album lets its sinister mask slip and turns to loving periods of instrumental perfection. Supergroup combinations feel rarer now than they ever did. The Waeve is one of the last, and one of the best. Stiff competition from Boygenius, but Graham Coxon of Blur and Rose Elinor Dougall of The Pipettes have come together for ten tracks of surreal near-perfection on this self-titled supergroup piece. The Waeve is an abundance of art-pop quality. A challenging, gorgeous listen. Singles teased the full project with shockwaves of intensity for endless months. The Waeve slots those stray pieces into place and gorges itself on synth-heavy album tracks. Intensity shared among listeners, stern brilliance right at the core of a piece that defies high expectations.
