[From a review of Wet's album] Billboard 1/29/2016 by Elias Leight

http://www.billboard.com/articles/re...om-live-review

In Wet’s debut, Don’t You, the telltale signs can be found in the guitar tone -- lissome and pin-prick light, like something from a Frankie Beverly record -- and the curvature and breathy multi-tracking of the hooks. These tropes are spruced up with great care using all the tools of modern production. Listen to the drum programming on “It’s All In Vain” on high volume in headphones -- it flutters differently in each ear. In the back of “Don’t Wanna Be Your Girl,” a male voice sneaks in a fleeting high harmony, something Lindsey Buckingham might have done on Fleetwood Mac’s Tusk. On the EP version of the track, there’s a sound like keys rustling in the left ear around the 1:50 mark.
