Insect Surfers • Reverb Sun

 

 

Review by Adam Bregman
Part of the early '90s brief surf revival, L.A.'s Insect Surfers were a traditional surf outfit, playing mostly reverb-heavy instrumentals. Unlike other bands from this period, such as the Bomboras, who set fire to their instruments, added organ to their sound, and featured a go-go dancer, or Alabama's Man or Astro-Man?, who added a spaced-out rock theme to their take on surf music, the Insect Surfers played it completely straight. They wore shorts and looked like guys who probably really surfed. Almost every song on Reverb Sun is an original, and these guys know their way around the genre. Some of these tunes sound like classic surf covers, an example of the band's superb songwriting prowess. It's not heavy rock stuff, nor is it a particularly thrilling take on surf music, but for modern Ventures-style traditional surf music, Reverb Sun cannot be beat.

Reseña de Adam Bregman
Los Insect Surfers de Los Ángeles, que formaron parte del breve renacimiento del surf de principios de los 90, eran un grupo de surf tradicional que tocaba sobre todo temas instrumentales con mucha reverberación. A diferencia de otras bandas de este período, como los Bomboras, que prendieron fuego a sus instrumentos, añadieron órgano a su sonido y contaron con una bailarina go-go, o Alabama's Man o Astro-Man?, que añadieron un tema de rock espaciado a su visión de la música surf, los Insect Surfers jugaron completamente recto. Vestían pantalones cortos y parecían tipos que probablemente hacían surf de verdad. Casi todas las canciones de Reverb Sun son originales, y estos chicos conocen bien el género. Algunos de estos temas suenan como versiones de clásicos del surf, un ejemplo de la soberbia habilidad compositiva de la banda. No es un disco de rock pesado, ni una versión especialmente emocionante de la música surf, pero si lo que buscas es música surf tradicional al estilo de Ventures, Reverb Sun es insuperable.
