WILD WILD WETS - Love Always (2022) Hi-Res

“A sultry, sexy, surfy, tale of holding in feelings and still holding your head up high. Holding closest to what’s most important. ‘Holding’ is the second single off our upcoming third LP ‘Love Always’. Initially recorded in the summer of 2019 before the world went upside down we decided through the pandemic on ‘Holding’ off to release this album for when the “summer of love” could finally bloom again. ‘Love Always’ was always intended as a spring and summer release and this year it’s finally time”.

Fronted by Mike Turi and Taejon Romanik, Wild Wild Wets has been an underground Southern California staple for 10 years. Best known for delivering a dark and dancy psych party with their live performances, the band has earned a loyal following via rapturous performances at local clubs and festival stages.

Their first album in 2015, ’14th Floor,’ was pressed on vinyl from a label out of Bordeaux, France. Dubbed as “the french press LP”, it showcased their diverse sound. Their second album, 2018’s ‘Prisom,’ was a darker collection of songs that pushed more of a story and featured guitarist Romanik more in the foreground, giving the album a deeper, grungier, more velvety atmosphere. Since then, the band has released one 7″ record and three digital singles. One of which (2019’s ‘The Fix”) features Jason Crane of Rocket From The Crypt on trumpet and congas.

While the world had paused at the beginning of 2020, the members of Wild Wild Wets have been taking their time with finishing their third full-length album, ‘Love Always.’ This time they went out of their comfort zone to make this record, telling stories of light and dark, love and loss; collaborating with some of the best recording, mixing, and mastering engineers in the genre.
