The trick about Devilfish’s music is that its best listened to while being productive. I’ve accomplished a lot while listening to “Sugar Sandwich Monster” I’ve done laundry, paperwork, filed CD’s in my basement- all with a smile on my face. I’ve even took a few moments to spastically dance to songs that caught my attention. It’s an instrumental album and the similarities are reminiscent of Dick Dale, the Melvins and as my Father says, “It’s like a modern day Duane Eddy.” There is energy in this music and Devilfish has more to offer than typical surf-rock. The song Doom Cloud does something for me, something more than just beaches and rock and roll- I get excited and inspired.
Recommended if you like: reverb, surf and fuzz guitar, The Melvins, instrumental metal bands, movie soundtracks, Dick Dale and The Ventures.
