Their style could be described as a blend of catchy indie pop with raw garage rock sounds, coined as "bubblegrunge" by The Guardian.
The band was formed in 2012 by Burke and Waters, who first met each other in a bar and began recording demo songs based on files of song ideas Burke recorded on her iPhone. In 2013, Bines and Cole joined the band shortly before recording commenced on their debut EP. They released the self-titled debut EP in 2014, and followed up with a self-titled full-length album in 2016.
The 2016 album was shortlisted for both the Juno Award for Alternative Album of the Year and the 2017 Polaris Music Prize in 2017, as well as garnering a SOCAN Songwriting Prize nomination for the song "Shithole".
The band's second full-length album, Wide Open, was released on October 6, 2017.
One More
Weaves Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You see I saw you standing there on the sidewalk looking to wink at me
And I thought to myself, oh
I thought to myself about the goddamn feeling a breeze
You see I could never care much more about you, and you plus me
Because something tells me under the boardwalk they'll be more casualties
Watch out cause I'm breathing on me
And there's only room for one more and there's only room for one
One more
One more
One more
One more
I perspired under the shirt that I put on nothing is covering me
I'll retire under the age of my father nothing is muffling me
You see I saw you standing there on the sidewalk looking to wink at me
Because something tells me under the boardwalk they'll be more casualties
Watch out cause I'm talking to you
Watch out cause I'm breathing on me
And there's only room for one more and there's only room for one
Watch out cause I'm talking to you
Watch out cause I'm breathing on me
And there's only room for one more and there's only room for one
(And there's only room for one)
(And there's only room for one more)
(And there's only room for one)
And there's only room for one more and there's only room for one
And there's only room for one more and there's only room for one
Watch out
Watch out
Watch out
Watch out
The lyrics to Weaves's song "One More" have an enigmatic quality that leaves room for interpretation. The song seems to revolve around the singer's encounter with someone on the sidewalk who catches their attention. The opening lines suggest that this person is trying to get their attention and the singer acknowledges the feeling of attraction. However, there is a sense of detachment in the line "I could never care much more about you, and you plus me." It implies that the singer is not fully invested in this connection.
The reference to "under the boardwalk" hints at hidden or secretive encounters, and the line "they'll be more casualties" suggests that pursuing such connections may come at a cost. It could be a metaphor for the potential emotional consequences of engaging in transient or casual relationships. The repetition of the phrase "one more" throughout the song adds to the sense of limited space and opportunity for this connection. It may suggest that the singer is hesitant or guarded, wanting to keep their options open.
The second verse continues with a sense of vulnerability as the singer mentions perspiring under their shirt, implying discomfort or anxiety. They also contemplate retiring under the age of their father, which can be interpreted as feeling stifled or constrained in their existence. These lines echo the idea that the singer is not fully committed or invested in the relationship being portrayed.
Overall, "One More" presents a complex and ambiguous perspective on relationships, capturing a sense of hesitancy and detachment while also acknowledging the desire for connection.
