This is never a complete list of surf releases, I always miss some (and I want to thank Uwe and Dorthy for helping screen it before release). Not everybody has the same definition of surf, but generally if you're mostly instrumental, use guitars, and call yourself surf, you're in. Single-artist compilations are Greatest Hits etc - releases from a band that do not include unreleased material. Less than that enters the mini-LP/EP gray area that I leave undefined. My definition of an LP is 8 songs or over 25 minutes. I did not include single song releases. Releases must be at least 50% instrumental. However, there are plenty of un-bolded things in this list I would endorse as well, I just didn't get a chance to write about it.
That probably does count as an endorsement.
Bold stuff means means I've mentioned it on this website. It's simply everything I could find that I could reasonably call surf. Inclusion on this list is not an endorsement. Some of these rules may seem arbitrary but you have to have some guidelines to make a list like this. To understand this list, there's a few things you should know. In fact, more often I felt overwhelmed by how many there were. When somebody asks you "is anybody even making new surf music?" show them this and laugh.Ģ022 was a great year for surf, with those of us following on the bleeding edge finding very few lulls in great releases.
