DoujinShinji I have a soft spot for surf rock, but it can be hard to have that type of energy and sound without devolving into something trite. But mixing surf rock and punk with some gothic horror? I'm all for it. Favorite track: Hemoglobin the Magnificent.

Clara Rose RIP to my inner circle that's going to listen to this every time we hang out.
Such a fun premise and a badass execution. Think, "What We Do in the Shadows" meets Dick Dale Favorite track: What If We Don’t Eat the Musicians?.

davyv876 Very engaging instrumental tracks, very original story Favorite track: Whole Lotta Suckin’ Goin’ On.

about

THANKS FOR HELPING US SELL THE FIRST PRESSING OUT!

You are about to hear the score of the most ridiculous, b-movie Dracula film no one has ever seen (and may not even really exist). The Hamiltones debut LP is an instrumental, surf-punk adventure that has as much in common with Ennio Morricone and The Cramps as it does with the Ventures. Nimble guitars, lurking bass, swirling organs, and eerie violin create a sound that can transform from uptempo and raucous to dark and baroque, harkening back to an era when ghouls lurked in every Eastern European forest.

After my band stopped playing in '95 i sort of dropped out and lost interest. (heartbroke). in '98 i went to see The Bomboras at Magic Stick in Detroit. They blew me away! Completely got my love for surf music re kindled. What the Stray Cats are to post rockabilly the Bomboras are to post surf. You know you have done it right when so many try to sound like you and look like you. Love everything this band does. The best of the best. motorcitysurf
