Surfy, garagey, punky, pop music. Brings to mind the mid 60s more than anything, but always honest, never retro-schlocky. These guys could open for any of the killer SF/East Bay garage/punk bands and make it the best of their shows you ever catch. Tons of treble, never too optimistic, lots of tracks have a 50s high school/teenage theme running through them. No FCCs detected. RIYL: East Bay garage-punk (Shannon & the Clams, Hunx & His Punx, Nobunny, Warm Soda), Ty Segall, Ramones, Guantanamo Baywatch 1 (1:39) Vox buried, flute all over; psychy, pogoing, breaks down at end 2 (2:08) Early 00s post-punk revival vox, cloudy day summery, somewhat driving 3 (2:16) 60s bluesy/psychy upbeat, tons of drum rolls, backing surfy licks 4 (2:04) 50s doo-wop style with 80s noise-pop/post-punk execution 5 (2:38) Teenage found a good stepfather surf-blues-pop *6 (2:19) Blurry post-Ramones pop 7 (2:15) Poppy, punky, driving, 50s evolved *8 (3:22) Surfy riffs, pounding drums, you'll want to dance 9 (2:26) Groovy bassline, snotty vox, killer riffs, about jeans 10 (2:52) Surfy garage-punk about how things used to be better *11 (2:34) Lo-fi acoustic surf-pop, slightly snotty vox, light harmonica, great stuff 12 (1:46) Lo-fi again, rackety, fuzzy percussion | ||
