The Break on Spicks and Specks
I finally got a chance to check this out. These guys are incredible. I'm definitely a fan. I love the synth-organ sounds.
totally appropriate usage of vintage synth tones within a reverberated surf context....awesome sh*& indeed!

I saw them in Melbourne (Aust) on Sunday night and it was a great show! Everything you'd expect from a top-class expereinced band presenting their take on the genre, I have a lot to learn from their rhythm section alone
Martin Cilia (Atlantics), Ben Rogers (Ben Rogers Instrumental Asylum) and other artists were there in amongst the audience - matter of fact I met Martin the night before at another gig, so yeah my weekend was pretty darn good!

I still need to get a real cd of this.
but a friend made me a cdr of it,
without asking.
I really like it alot.
it's not trad by any means,
and there are a few things that are kinda quirky.
but over all I am really impressed with it.
Lots of different styles and moods going on in there.

no, that helmet is for everyday wear...protects from sudden unexpected impact, space debris, and electromagnetic radiation...PLUS...it's all shiny and stuff...the aluminum framed spectacles are simple vanity...
