Hey there, folks! Just finished a new track. This one is a part of my new project called "Beach Bomb". The sound I was aiming for was basically surf mixed with some more heavier/extreme types of music. Would love to hear what you guys think about the song https://beachbombband.bandcamp.com/track/napalm-nug —Beach Bomb - Black Surf from the cold waters of Norway! Last edited: Dec 11, 2019 06:05:38 |

I saw your band treads water between Surf and Death Metal. Most Death Metal has a the rhythm guy chugging chords with a lot of distortion in the back ground. I think this song would be a killer with the same type setup. The only example I can think of is the one Dick Dale and Gary Hoey below. Check out the Russian band Amphibian Man - Metal Goes Surf ... love their stuff . . . you sound similar to them. Even if bands only hired a metal rhythm player would make some killer tunes to Surf by. All the real surfers on boards love this stuff |

Good song, man. Real tight. I like the bass, the way it follows the lead in parts. I like the dynamic pacing also, you vary the energy nicely and build it to a dramatic crescendo. Am I hearing wood blocks or something like that as a percussive element? Last edited: Sep 08, 2019 01:10:37 |

I like it a lot. Good riffs using an interesting scale, and surfy but not generic. The second half is really great with different chord progressions and other stuff going on. |

Thanks a lot guys! Surfing_Sam_61: That Dick Dale and Gary Hoey version is really great, but I really wanted to keep this sounding more traditional in the guitar section. The plan is to play this music as a trio, so wanted the song to capture that feeling. Maybe I will need a heavy metal rythm guitarist if that doesn't work out ;) That Amphibian Man album is great. The version of Immortal is awesome! —Beach Bomb - Black Surf from the cold waters of Norway! |

This is very fun stuff. The guitar playing is impressive, and yeah that first song is super fast - like 250 bpm? I am a big fan of pushing this style (I don’t consider surf a genre)! Nice singles, I look forward to an EP! —Daniel Deathtide |

ElMorto - WoW! I looooove Napalm Nug! I would love to be in a surf band that played this type of faster, heavier style of surf music. So much fun. The bass guitar matching the lead guitar's riff is awesome. I remember a band called Coroner many years ago that was a 3 piece thrash band and the bass player and lead guitarist did the same riffs together, two octaves apart and it sounded incredible. Like very fast Iron Maiden stuff. I would love to hear more and will definitely like to buy your album when it comes out. I did buy your single - cheers to you! —_ Hi, I'm Gellert, guitarist for The Fintastics. https://www.facebook.com/TheFintastics Last edited: Dec 11, 2019 12:28:58 |

I still think "The Jester" is among the fastest instrumental surf songs. —Happy Sunsets! |

Cool track! Love the playing and love the spirit. Reminds me of Alabama thrash surfers Necronomikids, which you might dig: I miss those guys! —

Thanks again, guys! Really appreciate that As you might have guessed, I'm a huge Necronomikids fan. And yeah, really sad that those guys aren't making music anymore. —Beach Bomb - Black Surf from the cold waters of Norway! |
