NOR’EASTER is the third -- and brand-spanking-newest -- release by the East Coast’s best surf/instrumental trio, Mister Neutron.
NOR’EASTER is slathered in everything that makes this band special: creative, original modern-surf melodies, lightning-fast playing and a subtlety and tightness that comes from playing together for 24 years. The 17 songs take you on a joy ride that ricochets between serene and downright menacing. Thrill to the ferocious double picking, the chilling glissandos and the trem-bar bends! Gawk and grin at the best instrumental rock you’ll hear in 2008!
NOR’EASTER showcases several instro-rock styles, including modern and classic surf, a slack-key-inspired acoustic tune, Hammond organ-drenched spy rock and spaghetti western via a new arrangement of “Hang ’Em High.” And although it’s packed with New Jersey references (Point Pleasant, Sea Girt, Tiki Barber), NOR'EASTER will have people doing the Neutron Stomp from coast to coast, down into Tuscany, Antigua, Weisbaden and Indochina! Maybe even Quebec!
NOR’EASTER is the perfect soundtrack to everything – and, yes, we mean EVERYthing – you'll do this summer.
Mister Neutron has been playing together since Aug. 11, 1984, when they all sported moptops and bad T-shirts. The band is Damian Fanelli (guitarist and hater of ignorant music writers), Tony Fanelli (bassist and lover of fine things) and Drew Paradine (drummer and champion mouser). They all live in New Jersey.
Mister Neutron can usually be found performing at Otto’s Shrunken Head in New York City, but they've played in New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania, California, Texas, Massachusetts, Connecticut, Georgia, Kentucky and Maryland.
Be the first kid on your block to get tossed around by this powerful NOR'EASTER!
Mister Neutron: Women want them, men want to be them. Luckily, with recent advancements in identity theft, anything is possible!
