Phil Dirt - Reverb Central - PO Box 1609, Felton, CA 95018-1609 USA The Hang-Ten Hangmen - Terror Tube - Death Rattle - Beyond Damascus
 | Obvious rehearsal space recordings display some serious surf. The Hang-Ten Hangmen must be a band to contend with live! I'd really like to hear these tracks well recorded. |

Track by Track Review
Surf (Instrumental)
"Terror Tube" rips with a loud, raucous performance. It's a good song, dark and menacing. The bridge from "Midnight Run" is morphed for a vintage reference. Better sound would gain a full star here!
Surf (Instrumental)
Loud jammin' frat presurf riff rock... yeah, dark party pummeling, with aggression and no remorse. The structure is typical of early surf instros, but with a big modern assault.
Surf (Instrumental)
This is a really nicely written surf instro, with a fine melody line and lots of aggression. Dark, very lively, and sporting some fine playing. It's pretty intense!
