"SUN, SAND, SURF & SIDEWALLS" Third Edition
By Tom Tourville

"This is an interesting way to view the history of surf and hot-rod music: through autographs of bands and solo artists that made all the records that we've loved over the years. Not just autographs, either, but a ton of interesting graphics from photographs to record labels to concert posters. One of the adjacent benefits this book provides is a way to confirm the authenticity of any autographs in the book that the reader may already have on record labels, LP jackets, photographs, etc."

• John Blair
  Author & Recording Artist

Just when you thought it was safe to go back in the water, The Routes are back with their unique blend of “beat-you-to-death surf music” (Iggy Pop). Their latest target: the music of Joy Division!

Having previously surfy-fied the songs of Kraftwerk and Buzzcocks, “Surfin’ Pleasures” sees The Routes take on the music of Joy Division. As with their previous “tributes”, this is not an album of note for note cover versions. The Routes have only taken subtle melodic and rhythmic hints from the original songs; rearranging them into songs of their own, respectfully and lovingly translating the music of Joy Division into a different musical language.

“Surfin’ Pleasures” sees twelve classic Joy Division songs reimagined and rearranged as banging 60s surf guitar instrumentals (à la The Ventures, Dick Dale, Shadows, Trashmen, Terauchi Takeshi, Link Wray, The Surfaris and The Astronauts and more).

Prepare to be taken on a wild musical trip where “A Means To An End” and “Ice Age” are transformed into the background music of a 60s drag race movie, “Transmission” hints at the classic Astronauts sound, and “Digital” gets the beach party treatment... You don’t have to be a fan of Joy Division to enjoy these tunes, and likewise if you’re a Joy Division fan you don’t need to be a fan of surf music to enjoy them.

The record cover comes courtesy of British design icons Peter Saville and Malcolm Garrett. It is a reworking of Peter Saville’s design for Joy Division’s “Unknown Pleasures”. Reminiscent of the op art of Bridget Riley, the lines are no longer that of a pulsar, but that of the sound wave of a reverb tank.

Blasphemy or alchemy? You decide!

One thing is for sure is that The Routes have provided the world with yet another future cult classic, destined to irk or jerk for eons to come.

Pressed in HELLFIRE ORANGE with BLACK SPLATTER, this SPINE-CHILLING 7" was conjured up to wake the dead... and to satiate your spooky surf addiction. SIDE A features an original (sin) song about waves infernal, christened "SWELL FROM HELL", and slay you on the B-SIDE with a ghastly cover of "NO MERCY FOR THE DEAD" from Maine hardcore punk band of yore, Wicked Dead! Both tracks were engineered and mixed by Todd Hutchisen at Acadia Recording Company in Portland, Maine, and mastered by the dastardly Dave Klein (The Ghastly Ones, The Bomboras).
