Bleeding Knees Club co-founder Alex Wall hasn't strayed too far from the source with new project Wax Witches. The debut album Centre Of Your Universe is a stock reel showcase of Wavves-esque breezy snot-pop, with tracks like Headshave and 2yung2die feeling both youthful, carefree and re-run.
There are moments where a dewy-eyed clarity comes to the fore – Ultra-Outcast for example evokes an affinity with Ratcat (a welcome comparison). But overall Wax Witches sticks to what he knows – a sure-fire instant hit concoction, sure, but not much in the way of longevity.
