The 427's - Stay Gold 2018


 
   The 427's  have quietly become one of Canada's top surf bands.With little fan fare they have managed to garner enough  airplay  to achieve some top chart success  on college radio across the country.Hell, for a surf band that's pretty much unheard.Thier "Surf Noir" ep and the debut album "Mavericks" will convince you that this outfit is a serious contender.The band's latest offering "Stay Gold" has now washed ashore and once again they have another winner on their hands.This time out we get 14 original tracks of kool surf.From traditional to noir (spy) to spaghetti and even shades of exotica. This is one sweet and well produced  slab of surf that delivers.Highlights include: " Bullitt", " Dead Men Don't Wear Plaid", "Escape From Alcatraz", "Bikini Thief " and the fun romping "Liberty Belle"
   
     Overall this is The 427's best effort to date and you just know that that they haven't shown their full hand yet.It's smart and sexy surf that will definitely colour you impressed. Highly recommended

Doyley & The Twanglords - Twang Solo 2017


 The ever busy and prolific Philip Doyle (aka Doyley) is at it again.Now he's flexing his musical muscles  with  Doyley & The Twanglords and the stellar album "Twang Solo". This puppy crashes ashore with 20 kool instrumental tracks that range from traditional surf to surfpunk  to psycho surf .If that wasn't enough throw in some sci- fi, spy, b movie madness and shades of spaghetti.It all makes for a  rich and diverse mix  that will have you coming back for more.Also some of the tracks originally date back to Doyley's Klingonz days as well as tracks from The Zorchmen and The Guitar Slingers.Highlights include: "Twangzilla" , "D-Twang", "One Of Our Spies Is Missing", "Graviton" and the remix of "ZorchX14"
     Diablo Records have another winner with " Twang Solo",hell even the album art work by Eugenio Magno is sweet. It's a top shelf surf album that gives you a big bang for your buck and hopefully Doyley & The Twanglords isn't a one off project . This is one you diffidently want to get your hands on. Highly Recommended!!  https://diablorecordsuk.bandcamp.com/album/doyley-the-twanglords-twang-solo
