These “Spoiled Brats from Malibu” were years ahead of their time — a Malibu surf crew making anarchic, funny, genuinely punk rock music about their beach, their waves, and everyone else who needed to get off them. “My Beach,” “Beer Can Beach,” “Shoulder Hopper” — it’s The Beach Boys if The Beach Boys grew up on the Ramones, with singer Drew Steele riding a custom Skatar onstage (a skateboard bolted to a Fender Strat) and zero regard for anyone who didn’t surf. The album is a genuine SoCal artifact that Descendents, Agent Orange, and the Beastie Boys all claimed as an influence.
