Addicted to the Drums: "Let's Go Surfing"

New York quartet The Drums are a wildly addictive group fascinated by the surf culture of the 1950s and the late 70s/early 80s Factory Records sound. Combining harmonies and whistling that could find a home in an early Beach Boys album with rhythms and bass lines popularized by Manchester bands like Joy Division and New Order, the Drums' music provides a welcome spin on two beloved eras.
