Hot Wheels – Sun Blonde - New LP

Sun-soaked L.A. melancholy, clearly heavily influenced by the slow moody side of surf rock...but nothing like Beach Boys...and while this has lots of electric guitar, and surf rock was able to use electric guitars to bridge exotica and Polynesian and Caribbean music to their music, the use of electronics on this album helps remove this from the 1960s and mixes various sources of the 1950s with sounds more connected with the electronic-heavy music of the 1980s..some vocals, but primarily focusing on instrumentals... "Perfect 10" notching up the tempos and bringing you to the roller rink sounds of decades past...mostly warm breezes shaking the palm branches, foamy waves washing across sandy beaches to tanned feet waiting...dreaming of exotica localtions and a California dream that has long since past, and may have never really existed except for maybe a few months in 1963 (and for centuries before the Europeans arrived).  -- winchSun Blonde by Hot Wheels   Full Color Insert w/ Lyrics and
