"This album represented the energy and freedom of the culture and the sport of surfing, and did more than that: it helped protect surf music from obscure death by injecting it with a healthy dose of punk. 'Somebody Ripped My Stick' alone is worth the price of the entire album. Also if you read the liner notes, you get to see where Pauly Shore got most of his standup lines. "

"I am always reminded of my high school days when listening to this album (kinda wierd for a girl from the land-locked state of New Mexico, huh?) Just goes to show that the Surf Punks' lyrics are universal."
My surf, my CD, my memories--get lost!

"What can you say about the Surf Punks? For anyone who's surfed long enough to remember when it was almost strictly outlaw, this album is a blast from a less-crowded-but-less-mellow past. A few dorky songs are worth it anyway, for their historic value...and the rest? Go home!"
So Bad its Great

"Bad vocals, dumb lyrics, stupid instrumentation - these guys are great! Finding this in CD form gave me a flash back to my early punk rock and surfing days. Don't expect hardcore punk or great surf music, just some fun on some cool songs - Somebody Ripped my Stick, My Wave."
