Kristin Hersh has long been one of our favorite songwriters from the post-punk flowering of the eighties, and we’re excited to see this new trio of hers, which promises to take full advantage of her ability to create full-on and ferocious rock (her solo and Throwing Muses work often strove for a more fragile beauty). Designed to be an energy-driven live act, 50 Foot Wave also operates on a short-sharp-shock philosophy for CD releases, with six-song EPs due every nine months; the first came out in March.
