I'm always waiting to hear about that break through surf band that's going to bring the genre back to the masses. Lol. People seem to be posting about this band, non-stop, on social media. And I see they have a ton of 'likes'. Not that that means anything, but I have my fingers crossed for them. Killer band. Anyone seen them live?

Kudos to them for bringing the 60s go-go and beehive instro garage rock aesthetic and making some cool, chill sounds. Not all instro/surf has to be Dick Dale machine gun riffage at 175bpm. Hopefully, they'll make it to the west coast some time. I haven't been able to go on the Hang-ten Hangmen travels to Toronto for the festival shows so I have yet to take in one of their live shows. I wish them all the success. I remember having to take my daughter somewhere and while we were driving, Toxic played on the radio. Once I heard that short exotic riff I got her to write down "make a surf version of Toxic" on a notepad but I never pursued it. Glad the Surfrajettes did! In fact, I have a similar story of "White Rabbit", but I never pursued that either once I heard their version. So, I certainly do enjoy their taste in music! —Lorne |

More than 3 million views of their video on Facebook definitely makes them the most "seen" surf band in a long time. If you were their manager what would you do? Buy Endless Drummer @ Bandcamp Last edited: May 12, 2018 18:48:18 |

Yes, I actually was wondering what was going on with that Jag, so thanks for that. I went on to watch several performances and I think they are great. They really get surf music, the whole vibe is fun, and they have an authentic sound. |

I was just reminded of the first surf version of "Toxic" I heard. It was band I saw at a San Francisco house party in 2006. They killed it. Monsters from Mars were great. —Science friction burns my fingers. Last edited: May 13, 2018 14:11:26 |

Well if nothing else, they are a LOT more interesting to look at than old white guys in shorts and Hawaiian shirts. Plus I really like their style and sound. |

I like this tune and a lot of tunes Britney Spears sings. Richard Thompson did a great cover of ‘Oops I did it Again’ some time ago. tonybologna wrote: — |

But not the least likely. They don’t even let singers like her write their own tunes. I think those two Swedish babyboomers who produce all of Madonna’s, Taylor Swift’s and Katy Perry’s songs also compose Britney’s. IvanP wrote: — Last edited: May 14, 2018 19:58:42 |
