Beertubes - Limited Edition Mini Debut Album

Beertubes are one of the few (if only?) surf groups representing Indonesia, and they do it with burlap sacks or a red cloth covering their head. I don't know. They've got a pretty trad sound played with gusto and a few sound clips interspersed. This is a warmup as they get an LP ready before the end of this year

It's streaming on bandcamp or if you'd like one shipped to you, check out their

Susan Surftone - Blue Light at Midnight

Susan & the Surftones have been regularly releasing material since the mid-90s and according to Wikipedia this is Susan's 18th LP. Very nearly an album a year, and I have to admit I just haven't been able to keep up.

We've got 7 songs on this one with the title track listenable in its entirety on Reverbnation

Apicultores Clandestinos release Astronauta do Campo

Not using google translate on this one: I think the name means secret beekeepers. This LP is loud, fun, and playful. It's got 3 vocal tracks, sure, but it's also got about 3 theremin tracks and one kazoo track (perhaps meant to simulate bees?). Give it a spin on bandcamp!

The Reigning Monarchs

The Reigning Monarchs are a really interesting case.

Let's start off by just saying that they're very good. Their LP "" was fun and energetic from start to finish, and full of variety and creativity. They talk a lot about melding surf with ska, reggae, punk - which I hear, but I hear them as a surf-influenced band first and foremost.
