Avenged Sevenfold isn't the only SoCal group to post an impressive showing on this week's sales chart. Retro-pop act Best Coast, the indie faves of the moment, enter at No. 36 with "Crazy for You," an album that sold 10,000 copies in its debut week. The buzz on Best Coast's '50's-meets-Ramones-inspired sound began at the South by Southwest conference in Austin, Texas, in March, and has only increased in the weeks since.
The 10,000 copies sold is more than respectable, and in line with other hotly tipped indie acts. Joanna Newsom, for instance, who recently performed a critically adored show at the Orpheum, opened with about 7,000 copies sold of her "Have One on Me" earlier this year.

lol from that same billboard reportTrouble, however, could be in for M.I.A.'s "MAYA." Though the aggressiveness of the effort rewards after repeated listens, it's falling swiftly, resting at No. 66 after just three weeks, and totaling 46,000 copies sold.

Washington Post live review captures the good and bad (plus includes references to Tallulah Gosh and Shop Assistants):
http://blog.washingtonpost.com/clicktrack/2010/09/in_concert_best_coast_at_rock.html
excerpt:
Amiable to a fault, Best Coast played its raucous pop at a ladylike volume, and paused now and then for offhand chatter. Cosentino wished the crowd a happy Rosh Hashanah, and talked a bit about her boyfriend. (That would be Wavves' frontman Nathan Williams, Sonny to Cosentino's Cher in today's Cali slacker-pop universe.) As for the songs, they involved a lot of "oohs,'' "las,'' and "whoas,'' and proceeded at one of two tempos: medium or fast. Faster was better, since the velocity somewhat compensated for the thin, sound-alike melodies.
Such tunes as "Boyfriend'' and "Summer Mood'' might have seemed more distinctive if they hadn't been part of a 55-minute set that included almost twice as many numbers as the band's 13-song debut album. The occasional guitar solo wasn't enough to inject variety into a set whose musical style (and psychological profile) never shifted. Rather than leave the crowd wanting more, Best Coast left the lingering sense that it had shown everything it might do in its entire career.

So I was getting my haircut last night and the guy cutting it was talking to me about music and we had the following exchange:
Him: "Have you ever heard Best Coast?"Me: "Yeah, I like a couple of her songs."Him: "Oh man, so you're totally into chillwave then?"Me: "I don't know if I would say that."

Its a good formula I think, just gets wearying over a full-length.

The thing is, though, that Best Coast isn't chillwave.
― markers, Wednesday, 6 October 2010 13:33 (thirteen years ago) link
Well, yeah, that was kind of my point about posting that exchange.
