"Apes of Wrath" is excellent! However, regarding an entire album, Interstellar Stomp is my album of choice. I'm glad I have a copy! -that and Nebula One. -K — "Turn the knob to 10 and break it off!" -Baja Marty Top
JakeDobner Joined: Feb 26, 2006 Posts: 12159 Seattle	Posted on Aug 30 2007 08:17 PM Tied? What the hell? Tsar Wars is a much better album. Interstellar Stomp might have better tracks but Tsar Wars has the greatest flow of any instrumental record ever recorded. Ivan created an album where most surf records are a collection of songs. And Brian, best of shouldn't count because it really isn't a true release. If I recall Ivan wasn't 100% happy with it. Top
Ruhar Joined: Jun 21, 2007 Posts: 3909 San Diego, CA	Posted on Aug 30 2007 09:10 PM I love Intersteller Stomp, but I voted Tsar Wars. That album just blows me away. Jewel of Duende may be one of the most brilliant instro tunes ever written IMHO. — Ryan The Secret Samurai Website The Secret Samurai on Facebook Top
Brian Joined: Feb 25, 2006 Posts: 19298 Des Moines, Iowa, USA	Posted on Aug 30 2007 09:48 PM The Best-Of has some tracks not on the others. And I don't remember Ivan being unhappy with it. I think he would have picked a few different songs. I'm voting Tsar Wars but it really is a toss up. Too bad Art won't release that live CD.... — Site dude - S3 Agent #202 Need help with the site?

bigtikidude Joined: Feb 27, 2006 Posts: 25581 Anaheim(So.Cal.)U.S.A.	Posted on Aug 30 2007 11:02 PM I agree that there are some great songs on Tsar Wars, but for me I don't dig the whole cd. As for Interstellar Stomp. I can hum along with all the Melodies. I know them by heart, just like they are vocal lines. Very Melodic. The 1st Time Ivan came out to Ca. with the Cossacks I told him it was the perfect mix of Shadows melodies, and Surf/Space music. he was very flatterd. Jeff(bigtikidude) — Jeff(bigtikidude) Top

Ivan was going to try and get that released by Double Crown, or so he told me back in december of '05. Top

Stormtiger Joined: Dec 12, 2006 Posts: 2684 Ventura, CA	Posted on Aug 31 2007 01:46 PM I love Tsar Wars, but have never heard Interstellar Stomp. I recently got beaten at an eBay auction for a copy going for $6. I need this CD, if anybody has an extra one for sale I'll buy it. Top
Jon Joined: Mar 15, 2006 Posts: 1076 Columbus, OH	Posted on Aug 31 2007 04:15 PM I'm still searching for a copy of Tsar Wars. I was lucky enough to find a copy of Interstellar Stomp (in mint condition, no less) for sale on Amazon a week or two ago. Before that, all I owned was the best-of, which I bought at a Madeira show.

dp Joined: Feb 26, 2006 Posts: 3546 mojave desert, california	Posted on Aug 31 2007 05:22 PM "Interstellar Stomp" seemed to come out of the blue and strike me directly in the medulla oblongata like some sort of Tuscon thunderbolt in the middle of a dry hot summer day. That album got me through my senior year when I was working on the final requirements of the BA in Geography. besides, that cd just totally kicks ass, -dp Top
Tuck Joined: Sep 02, 2006 Posts: 3166 Denver, CO	Posted on Aug 31 2007 07:07 PM WaimeaBay I am going to predict the Tsar Wars wins this by a large margin. Intertsellar Tsomp. At the moment. But don't give up. The margin is only 3 votes. What no Santsorm? I may have to change my nickname to Dasputin. Top
TFJ Joined: Mar 04, 2006 Posts: 278	Posted on Aug 31 2007 07:42 PM Both are great albums, as is the "best of" and the three 7"s. IS and TW may still be available on vinyl - Interstellar I believe has an extra track! Both worth getting in both formats. I, like many others, have a bias toward Interstellar Stomp only because I bought it before Tsar Wars came out and, like others have pointed out, hit me in the face. Top
