Finland’s best surf band! Surf guitar, plenty of keyboard riffs, many different styles. I like Laika! Some of the style combinations are somewhat bizarre, but that’s a good thing. The tunes are mostly simple and pleasant. All instrumental! * marks favorites (but they’re all good). 1.Maybe the closest thing to a real surf tune on this album. Mid tempo.* 2.Sweet melody, mid tempo. 3.Funky sound. Mid tempo. 4.Mid tempo, nice melody. Great background 5.Soft and sweet. Ends with phone sound. 6.A little more rocky, Who-style surf.* 7.Another “loud” track, mid tempo, sweet melodic keyboard riff. * 8.More elaborate hard-rock style guitar solo. Mid/high tempo. * 9.Mid/slow tempo, simple classic tune. 10.Garage-like tension, some soft Jazz moments, all wrapped in pop-surf. 11.A little like an old Russian tune, slow/mid tempo. * 12.Loud, upbeat, rock&roll! * | ||
