Dry Feet
Philadelphia Beach
Self Released 2010
Zoltan predicts an indian summer thanks to Philadelphia surf punks, Dry Feet. Their debut album, Philadelphia Beach, is a must for all you rocking baggies while you're out shooting the curl. These dudes are straight out of the garage, devoid of any pretension or sense of irony. They are just putting out some good time tunes to inspire good times. Comprised predominately of jangly instrumentals mixed wisely with a couple of up tempo punk tunes, Philadelphia Beach may not be breaking any new ground here. But Dry Feet stick with what they know and since most songs clock in at under two minutes, even the less memorable songs work. As it's name suggests, "Slow Baby Slow" is the quiet tune on this record, a nice little jaded ditty about losin' your main squeeze. "I Can't Believe I Ate the Whole Thing" is a rockin' ode to excess. Add in a few made up monikers and an excellent, classic looking, surf inspired logo, and you have the best summer record released this summer. This shit was done on a budget and they are still givin' it away for free. Find these guys when they play near you. Hang Ten!
