Allen Palmgren I just received my vinyl copy of 1961 in the post today and it's spinning on the platter as I type. Oh the twang. I absolutely love this album. And the fact that I can listen to it on vinyl makes it even better!

ghandito The best album of the last 200 years in any genre, and one of the best reverb albums ever!
Eruptors is amazing!
Favorites: Eruptors/JoJo/Heat/Alki Favorite track: Eruptors.

Gnarly Mike The surf tune the World needs now. It’s got the drip, and an amazing ascending lead. And so cool to keep it short at 1:49. Favorite track: The Heat.
Kupietz

Kupietz The ultimate soundtrack from my retro-futuristic spy thriller dreams. Music for the end of, not this world, but perhaps one not too far removed from it, where everything is cooler, everyone drinks martinis, and the brighter sunlight can't conceal the fact that the shadows are slightly longer. Is there life beyond Seattle? After listening to these songs, I no longer care. Favorite track: Speedboat.

Hello? Hello..?

about

Three long years have passed since The Evanstones last release. Three years of toil and sweat and horrible smells. Now, by popular demand, and as was predicted in the scrolls, The Evanstones bring you more of what you, the discerning listener, didn't even know you were craving so desperately. But you were. Oh yes, you were. And we here at Evanstones world HQ heard your silent pleas, even before you plead them and responded with great haste combined with glacial deliberation to bring you what many are predicted to call the Surf Album of the Decade! Or at least some of you. OK, our moms. There. Are you happy now..?

about

The Evanstones Seattle, Washington

Originally lab chimps working as mild mannered reporters for a quaint metropolitan newspaper, The Evanstones came to earth with powers and abilities far beyond those of mortal monkey men. Upon their arrival at the Ellis Island of Dr Moreau from the old country, the Evanstones changed their name from The Evansteins and were on their way to the fickle fate of forgotten fame and fortune! ... more
