Thanks to everybody that donated to keep WTUL (and therefore Storm Surge of Reverb) on the air last week. As always, we made a lot of ruckus for a small corner of the music world.

This is the debut EP from Seattle's Delstroyers. The play kick-em-in-the-teeth surf with a little bit of a horror edge to it. The winner of the 4-pack is "Take me to the Hell-Hop" with a some great guitar interplay, and moments of the guitars really cutting loose then cutting back. It's all good, fun, stuff that I could imagine being pretty fun live.
All four tracks are available for free download on their Reverbnation page. Looking foward to hearing what's next from them.
Though the Phantom Operators never keep you waiting long for more material, this is the second full-length from the Tennessee-based group. When listening to them, there's one word that comes to mind: desolate. The guitars go on and on, but with a bit of a melancholy and not so much of that California brightness. It fits the desert theme that runs thoughout much of the Phantom Operators' material.
Here are 11 originals from Italy's Surfoniani. They've got upright bass, some very drippy guitar and drums, which gel into a bright and sunny modern trad sound. They've got a fair amount of beach party shakers like "Bikini", "Mai Tai Girl", and "Tiki Twist" though also a few cooler ones like "Red Waves". Give it a listen!
It's been two weeks since I've been on the airwaves and I've been scooping up instrumentals all the while. A LOT of new stuff on this show and even more new-to-the-show stuff including a stack of twelve 45's (maybe more depending on the speed of mail).
