Press Reviews
From Listen.com: The Dirt Surfers play straight-ahead, cleanly produced, well executed, instrumental surf music. The music features minor key melodies and atmospheric farfisa organ. Review at www.amp3review.com by Bruce Satinover: Ok, TWANG! Sometimes you need some surf guitar just to wake you up. The Dirt Surfers dish up nothing fancy here, Dick Dale has nothing to worry about, but that's ok because this is still lively, fun and it's hard to keep your foot from tapping. You gotta love surf music, anyone listening to this that happens to be a Pixies fan will instantly catch the huge influence surf had on the Dirt Surfers and so many bands that followed. Although "Pocket Pool" is not as frenetic as other surf tunes, it will not disappoint. |
