Hey Trustar!

..cool, you posted one of my all-time fav's!!.. ;-)

Formed by three guys from Paris, France, they started in 1996 and after makin a 3 track cd in 1998, a split ep with belgian famous 50 foot combo in 1999 and two V.A.'s..they made their first full album on German label Kamikaze Records: "Surf Double Pack Vol.1" together with The Vampires, a band from Germany.
Then in 2001 this record here.."On Target"..
Added a second guitar player in 2003, another VA and two Singles then..and thats already the end of their story.
In 2004 a last record, containing their Singles from 2003 and some nice Videos called:
"In Surf we trust..."

Such a cool band..besides that i have seen them playin live,years ago..
their fast&powerful playing,the crazy lyrics in some tunes..that's how i like it!

"..keeenu reeeews!.." lol!! :-)

Surf's Up!

Trustar,

Well, they're French, and they speak the French language, and they are FROM France .... Oh yeah! And they play guitars!! :>} Does that help?

Heh.

I'm sending you a Google translation of a Spanish review of this album. You'll have to "dig out" the relevant descriptions as they refer to "vinyl" as "heavy plastic ..." etc.

Eek!
