NO SURF

Guess who else did "B-Gas Rickshaw"? The Raybeats, everyone's favorite instrumental no wave supergroup; part Eight Eyed Spy, part Contortions, a brand of severely twisted surf music, heavy on periodically reverb-enhanced guitar, bass bordering on minimalist funk, Farfisa and sax. Some really tweaked shit. Whammy bar doing overtime. Dig "Tight Turn". So entirely badass. Their whole debut LP is like that. Whatever you want to call it, I'm buying in.


Raybeats, the shit. 1980
