Surf Rock Is Dead – “Back and Forth”

Ironically, surf rock doesn’t seem like it’s quite dead just yet… “Back and Forth” from the not-so-tellingly-named Surf Rock Is Dead chimed its way into our inbox with it’s lush guitar work and far-off vocals. With all aspects drenched in reverb, the song has a longing and forlorn tonality, bringing to mind acts like Turnover, Men I Trust, and Real Estate.

Surf Rock is Dead – “Everything They Said”

Brooklyn duo Surf Rock is Dead head up the release of their upcoming EP with a new single, “Everything They Said.” Despite what their name suggests, the track funnels in a good share of sunny guitar lines and reverb-soaked vocals, while bringing in the moodiness and technicality of new wave to finish out their sound. Drawing inspiration from artists like Day Wave, Beach Fossils, and Diiv, Surf Rock is Dead are definitely shooting for that dreamy factor, while staying true to their driving rock sensibilities. “Everything They Said” is the third single straight from the duo’s EP We Have No Friends, due out October 6th.
