Synopsis

Album Description

This is dark instrumental surf music. Reminiscent of classic surf artists, Dick Dale & the Del-Tones and The Ventures but with a darker modern twist. Murder On Beaver Street shifts between different styles within the surf genre. For example, the fast picking style of Dick Dale, the spaghetti western feel of Ennio Morricone, and the primitive rock and roll style of Link Wray.

CD Reviews

Pay No Attention To The Song Titles!

Andrew Stevenson | Union Springs, New York | 09/03/2005

(4 out of 5 stars)

"Overall this is well-played instrumental surf music of a gentle nature. I have no idea where the group came up with song titles like "The Mummy's Curse," "Shallow Grave," or "Death, Death, Death." There is nothing eerie or ominous about any of it. In fact this CD could be played in the background of a quiet get-together with friends and set a very nice ambience. It is worth owning but don't buy it expecting music in the "horror surf" genre."

The new (and better) wave of surf music

A. Carlson | Phoenix, AZ | 12/10/2007

(5 out of 5 stars)

"R66K's debut album still holds a firm place in my itunes daily rotation. Great guitar riffs and, at times, explosive drums make this a worthwhile music investment for anyone just getting into the genre or long-time fans of Dick Dale. You won't be disappointed with this album.

Now, if only the band would return from Germany, we could enjoy some shows stateside."

AWESOME!!!

"This CD is great. If you are looking for a different type of music other than the same old pop music out these days, pick up this CD!!! You can feel the soul in the instruments these guys play and you WILL be caught dancing or jumping around!!! This is the best surf I have heard!!!"
