I really love this album, and was hoping some of you could recommend bands/albums with a similar sound to this album specifically. Thanks and feel free to discuss Best Coast I guess.

Well, what did you enjoy about the album? Woman-fronted indie pop, west coast soaked sounds, or the garage-y low fi aesthetics?

All of it, but specifically those last two things you mentioned.

Not quite on the level of rhyming lazy and crazy (I've seen Bethany a few times live in LA), but here are some other surf-pop-rock and/or garagey lo-fi tracks:

Jenny (Lewis) and Johnny, also based here in LA, more mature, less whimsical
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GQAF5xLOliA
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FEmpKHWerWg

Tennis, they started surf-pop but are less so these days
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XtGoSCq-038
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a29g5ygQQak

Surfer Blood, florida surf-pop, less mature, less lo-fi
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LwWEHHAcQkc

Real Estate, more east coast lo-fi, also awful singers irl
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jt1mirm9FYg

and if you are super old like me, you might remember this song from midtown two decades ago

Ty Segall, Thee Oh Sees, Shannon and the Clams, anything (pretty much) on Burger Records.

There's a LOT of that stuff around now, and yes it's awesome.

Don't discount lollipop records!

Who's going to Summer Is Forever II? I'm going in a week and I'm very excited, as they're one of my favorites.

As for recommendations, I'm a big Halsey fan.

I was gonna tell you this in CineD Gen Chat but I forgot there's an actual Best Coast thread.

I saw it tonight and it was rad. Best Coast was great, Wavves were great and the opener, Cherry Glazerr (who I had never heard of before this), was also great.

Best Coast played for like an hour and I didn't check to see how long Wavves played but I'm pretty sure it was even longer.

Thursday can't get here fast enough, so pumped (even if I still know shamefully few Wavves songs).

Well both Best Coast and and Wavves for me are favorite song bands rather than favorite album bands, and both bands played literally every single one of my favorite songs of theirs, so it was a real success.

For Wavves, check out King of the Beach (the album) and Nine Is God (the song they put out for Grand Theft Auto 5). That's some of my favorite stuff they've done and they played both that song and several songs from that album last night.

Just a heads up, Best Coast is doing a care package thing from Fanjoy, should have some neat stuff:
