Surf Curse

High-velocity surf punk recorded with bedroom intimacy. Reverb-soaked guitars and frantic drums provide a frantic backdrop for themes of loneliness and cinema.

It's like the soundtrack to a movie about being lonely at a beach party.

A frantic, reverb-soaked collision of youthful energy and deep-seated loneliness.

Moments Worth Waiting For
the sudden explosion of the iconic four-note guitar riff on Freaks that feels like an instant anthem of alienation
the frantic, almost falling-apart drum fill that kicks off Chloe Kelly
the way the vocals strain and nearly break during the climax of In My Head Till I'm Dead
