I bought this CD based on the reviews without hearing any of the music, and I have to say, this is one awesome album! These guys shred! If you want to go back to the golden age of surf music, start here.
August 10, 2007It's amazing how a group that hadn't played together for over thirty years could put together a CD that is is so tight, melodic, beautiful and down right rockin'! This is just a great CD from beginning to end, if you like surf music, I guarantee you will love this CD.

I have a few hundred surf CDs and I would have to say thet this CD is my favorite! My next favorite is their new CD called "Headin' Out". They have the reverb and the composition that just makes all of the songs fantastic. If you like instrumental surf you will love this CD! Buy it you won't be sorry!
June 22, 2006These guys have been playing for a while and it shows. Odd though it may seem to talk about taste, restraint, and intelligence in surf music, they got it, bro. But even more trippy is that from time to time a certain feeling comes through that I thought had gone out of the world. But it hasn't.
Surf consciousness is an order of magnitude above ordinary consciousness. Buy this album. Go get pounded at the Wedge, come home, drain the water out of your head, put it on loud.
December 17, 2004If you like authentic surf-lover-composed surf (as opposed to novelty, space, or parody, half-jest surf) this izza great CD. These guys know how to set up the surf-reverb big guitar sound, play their instruments, AND compose authentic styled songs that range (in an admittedly limited genre) from driving, major-minor-chord power blowouts, to calm impressionist sunset-on-the-water knockouts. They've struck a clean balance of mood... sheer fun tinged with the surf-"sense of the numinous" mystical awe. If you're only gonna own one surf-genre CD and you're looking for the best one, this is probably it. If you love surf music, what excuse is there for not owning THIS sucker...? It's that good. Really.
