Surf Instro Review: Susan And The Surftones-Bitchin'

Facebook Profile

Susan and The Surftones are among the best acts in the surf genre.

Bitchin' is their third CD. I like its clear and solid production. 

The group listened to many greats from the '60s and paid tribute to them all.

Although the covers they did were excellent, and this is something that many viable surf instro bands do, there were just too many. This group can stand on its own. They shouldn't be doing so many covers. Their original material is outstanding, as I had witnessed before this release!

Bitchin' was an exemplary effort regardless of my opinions of their covering other material. If you enjoy surfing, you should add this CD to your collection. If this group continues to evolve and sticks to original material, they will be huge in the surf community.
