they was in early 80..., and was a big influence in the end of the Bristish punk scene...
Sepecilly they put Surf in the Bristish punk movement...only The Clash do the same with Charlie don,t Surf..
But the Brracudas was Surf pop punk band
They really was a rare band in the 80,s...but they was surfing when the worl forget the surf music..
I love his energy...

I loved the Barracudas back in their day, had all their records. Not really surfy as we think of it. More beachboys pop and then lots of mid60's garage rock influence. Still, I really dug them.

funny, i don't hear very much Beach Boys influence in the Barracudas. to me the Beach Boys actually was a surf band back in the day, they even had instrumentals. the Fender guitar sound and Carl's guitar playing also helped shape them into an actual surf band as well, whereas the barracudas were great, but in my eyes not a surf band at all. they were a punk/garage band from Britain that only SANG about surfing.
and for the record, Charlie Don't Surf isn't even close to a surf song, nor was it intended to be so, so it did nothing to put surf in the brit punk scene.

Sure that they coulb be present the Surf music style in this Song...

What I meant was there was more emphasis on vocal style and upbeat major chord songs than the instro surf we favor here.

I don't know about them being surf, but the Barracudas rule. Little Red Book is an awesome song, and they have others.
