Crazy for You

The debut album, 31 minutes of reverb-soaked surf pop.
Best Coast, 2010

Pesacov produced, engineered and mixed it. The cover is a photo of Cosentino's cat, Snacks, designed by David Rager. Baritone guitars were used, and Wikipedia says "Goodbye" was inspired by Nirvana. Singles were "When I'm with You", "Boyfriend", "Crazy for You" and "Our Deal". Metacritic scores it 76; NME and Spin gave 8 of 10, AllMusic and the Guardian 4 of 5, Christgau an A-minus. Exclaim! ranked it the sixth best pop and rock album of 2010. KQED said she is the kind of girl who knows her faults and wears them like jewelry.
