Reverb Drenched Magmaphonic High Energy Instrumental Surf
Music
Following up their two official albums "Magmanautic Inferno"
(Kamikaze, 2001) and "Mundaka Calls" (Double Crown, 2003),
several demo cds and compilations (e.g. in Japan and the USA), the
Kilaueas released their master stroke: „Profesor Volcanova“. This cd/lp erupts in 13 selfcomposed titles and 4 cover versions.
The Kilaueas bring the whole variety of instrumental surf-music
to listener’s ears: High-energy surf-crushers and spy-fi sounds
as well as atmospheric tunes. Their enthusiasm for Spaghetti Western
movies resulted in the abundant „El Hombre Invisible“,
a perfect soundtrack for a remake of “Django”. Live, with a fire spitting model of Hawaii’s „Kilauea“
volcano and solely original 60s gear on stage, they are a wild and
dancable spectacle. This has been proven in hundreds of concerts
since 1998 (e.g. with “The Apemen”, “The Bambi
Molesters”, “The Stingrays”, “Sugarmen Three”,…)
Bombastico retro comic art cover for cd und lp. The limited lava-colored vinyl emerges by the confluence of different color-streams during the pressing. So each vinyl is a unique copy!
The Kilaueas (2005)
BEISPIELE / SAMPLES
Pipeline [09/05]: "They have the sound, they have the arrangements and they most certainly have the drive to effect some very tasty surf instrumentals in classic 60s style."
New Gandy Dancer [09/05]: "Lots of spunky clean yet driving surf guitar on material that really moves… also the reverb surf dripping slower exotica…to contend with on an album full of surprises."
Reverb Central, Phil Dirt [2005 ]: "This is the second album from the Kilaueas. It displays a big step forward. Well developed songs with a very attractive sound, consistently performed in very strong arrangements. There's lots here for the surf fan, particularly is you're a sucker for the damped reverbed rhythm, like me. If you like the Bambi Molesters, Jim Messina and the Jesters, and the Surf Raiders, you'll like this CD. (5/5 stars)"
