Goodness, an edgie eighties guitar sound in a nineties surf stylee, with melodically structured songs. Akron, Ohio is home - big surf in Akron. Landlocked wavery with more mainstream sounds, well written tunes, and consistent quality. Thunder and brine, more than rock, less than double overhead. There are also a couple of beach-punk-pop vocal here, one called "Green Death," and the other called "Christian Cowgirl," plus "Mister Sin II." All three sport quite a twang, and that Impact V tribal tom tom beat from "Jet Stream." - Phil Dirttrax:

Good surf/surf instrumental record. "Green Death" sounds like it was inspired by early Insect Surfers. Thank you!
In spite of what the esteemed RYP says in the first comment, this is The Balboas.
By the way, thanks RYP for the awesome surfin' tunes! If you have any more Big Surf or Tremolo Beer Gut please share! Or more Balboas?
On a side note, when I was growing up, my dad had a 20-foot Balboa sailboat on which I spent many happy Sunday mornings. That boat is where I enjoyed my first beer -- a 16 ounce Coors. Something I can't imagine drinking today, but it was enough to throw a 8-year-old for a loop...
