   About The Volcanos

Started in 1994, the Volcanos set out to create a high-energy reinterpretation of classic '60s surf music. Chris and Rick had previous experience playing surf in the Zombie Surfers. After cooking up a few originals, the band put out two 45s on their Neurotic Bop label. The records were greeted favorably by the then-swelling, post-Pulp-Fiction surf music scene. The boys then hooked up with Estrus Records for a series of 45s, LPs and CDs. At live shows the band mixes their original instros with surf and garage vocal tunes. They've played Garage Shock 97, Surfari USA and the Las Vegas Rockaround, as well as being regulars on the Detroit scene.

and '60s Beat noisemakers The Meltdowns

"Otro Reverberante Encuentro Con Los Kahunas" review:

"I was mightily impressed by this Argentinean surf combo first set of recordings a few years ago, and they're back with an even mightier collection of classics.
There are 9 originals and 5 covers, including well-known stompers like "The Hearse", "Lanky Bones", "The Rise & Fall of Flingel Bunt" an
