...Blind Man’s Colour. If you wait around for a couple more years, the band will be a household name amongst hipsters and beachgoers alike. The band—hailing from St. Petersburg, Florida and led by Kyle Wyss and Orhan Chettri—released their debut LP this summer after six months of steady hype brought on by Kanye and others blogging about their music. “Season Dreaming” is the product of several years worth of material, and its title and the season of its release could not be more appropriate...

Some of these risks pay off, producing an engaging and original sound, but many backfire in alienating and even annoying ways.For a newcomer to the industry—Williams released Wavves’ eponymous first LP in September 2008—his experimentation is brave to say the least, but the new tricks he pulls in “Wavvves” are actually quite limited in scope.

With obscure LP covers, CDs, and music posters plastering its windows, Weirdo Records’ new storefront at 844 Mass. Ave. serves as an appropriate foretaste for the music haven that lies inside. The retail space—which opened its doors on Feb. 6—is the first for the business that began in owner Angela Sawyer’s bedroom in 2006. Primarily an online store until now, Weirdo sells new and used music, DVDs, books, and magazines. “I would like Weirdo to be a home for people who like weird stuff, who have...
