Across its brief but impactful nine tracks, the album, produced by Dave Sitek of TV on the Radio, is about what happens when you get old enough to take stock of the world around you and realize that no one is going to save you but yourself, and even that might be a tall order.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e“It’s real peaks and valleys with me,” Nathan Williams says. “I can be super optimistic and I can feel really good, and then I can hit a skid and it’s like an earthquake hits my life, and everything just falls apart. Some of it is my own doing, of course.” It’s this self awareness that permeates each of Hideaway’s songs, marking them each as mature reckonings with who he is.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eHideaway \u003c\/i\u003efeatures Williams’ most universal and urgent songs yet, including the previously-released single \"Sinking Feeling\".

The San Diego native knows how to play the system, so when the major labels came knocking a few years ago looking to turn Wavves into the next so-called saviours of radio rock'n'roll, Williams and bassist Stephen Pope made sure they used it to their advantage. When Warners came along and offered them a cash advance too good to refuse to release 2015's fifth album \u003ci\u003eV,\u003c\/i\u003e they accepted while being shrewdly aware of what they were getting themselves into. Williams released single \u003ci\u003eWay Too Much\u003c\/i\u003e on Soundcloud before the label had approved it, the label forgot to sign off on the artwork and, in the end, Wavves felt swept under the rug. Ultimately it felt like a career step backwards. With a fighting spirit, Williams took back control and realized his own teenage dreams. In February 2016, months before Ghostramp opened, Williams took himself into producer Dennis Herring's (King Of The Beach) studio in Downtown LA, and for the first time since the early records worked regular office hours and almost entirely alone. It was the polar opposite experience to making 2013's \u003ci\u003eAfraid Of Heights\u003c\/i\u003e record, which took Wavves over a year and was “out of control”. The album was put together wholly differently from \u003ci\u003eV,\u003c\/i\u003e too, which was recorded live as a band album together with guitarist Alex Gates, drummer Brian Hill and Stephen in the studio. \u003ci\u003eYou're Welcome\u003c\/i\u003e is mostly comprised of Williams' oddball, sample-led brainstorms. He came up with 40 tracks, now whittled down to twelve, fat-free punk zingers. A sample nerd, Williams delved into his obsession with 1950s doo-wop and – surprisingly – international folk, including Cambodian pop and '70's psychedelia from South America. The results make for one of the most diverse and intricate Wavves records yet. \u003ci\u003eCome To The Valley\u003c\/i\u003e contains a Phil Spector meets Beach Boys '60s High School dance vibe, whereas title track \u003ci\u003eYou're Welcome\u003c\/i\u003e riffs on sound effects that could almost originate from Bizarro World, never mind Cambodia. The biggest shift of all, and the ultimate laying down of the gauntlet to Williams' doubters, is the subject matter. Where\u003ci\u003e V \u003c\/i\u003ewas a “buzzkill” record, all hangovers, lovers' tiffs and depression, \u003ci\u003eYou're Welcome\u003c\/i\u003e is less navel-gazing. It's dealing with matters outside of Williams' own headspace. Nathan Williams never went away, but now he's made sure he's here to stay far longer.
