The Wants gained attention with their debut album Container (2020), which was inspired by their rehearsal space in a shipping container. Their intense live shows and the album's anxious songwriting drew praise from notable outlets like NME and Brooklyn Vegan. After a period of experimentation during the global shutdown, they released Bastard (2025), which has been described as beguiling and enigmatic. Their innovative approach continues as they work on their third album.
