VA • War Of The Surf Guitars!



Review by Steve Leggett
War of the Surf Guitars gathers 32 tracks from two top contemporary surf labels, Golly Gee Records and Double Crown Records, and features 15 bands in a lively compilation of fiery instrumentals, many of them previously unreleased or vinyl-only cuts. The casual listener may find the whole thing a little boring after a few minutes, since the tone and pitch of things here is very much in homage to the early 1960s reverb-laden surf guitar sound, but true fans of the genre will be delighted. Highlights include the Merseybeat feel of "Side Slippin" by the Supertones, the crazy, garage vibe of "The Wayback Machine" by the Honkeys, the eerie "Malaguena" by the Boss Martians, and the thundering "Run Chicken Run/Rawhide 63" by the Footstompin Trio.

Reseña de Steve Leggett
War of the Surf Guitars reúne 32 temas de dos de los mejores sellos de surf contemporáneos, Golly Gee Records y Double Crown Records, y presenta a 15 bandas en una animada compilación de ardientes instrumentales, muchos de ellos inéditos o cortes sólo en vinilo. El oyente casual puede encontrar el conjunto un poco aburrido después de unos minutos, ya que el tono y el tono de las cosas aquí es muy en homenaje al sonido de guitarra surf cargado de reverberación de principios de los años 60, pero los verdaderos fans del género estarán encantados. Entre los temas más destacados se encuentran la sensación de Merseybeat de "Side Slippin" de los Supertones, el ambiente loco y garajero de "The Wayback Machine" de los Honkeys, la inquietante "Malaguena" de los Boss Martians, y la atronadora "Run Chicken Run/Rawhide 63" del Footstompin Trio.
