I get how it can be. As you release more material, you run out of ideas. You fall into what's comfortable and your music sounds routine. You lose the spark of when you first started the band. At least I think that's how it goes. Mark, what's your secret for going in the opposite direction? How come each record is at least 5% better than the last one?

Today is Bandcamp Friday which means Bandcamp doesn't take a cut (but Paypal still does) and more money goes to the bands. That makes it a nice time for me to pick out a handful of primo recent surf releases for your spending spree.

Mark Malibu and the Wasagas were a second wave surf group up in Toronto that have recently reformed. I won't pretend that I already knew that, but I believe this is their second LP and their first recordings since 1981!
