ABOUT THIS ITEM

Taking the unlikely templates of 50s surf-rock and Factory Records as inspiration and mixing in a new wave sound, brand new four piece The Drums announce themselves as purveyors of some of the most exciting new sounds to come out of the US this year. Across all of it's seven tracks, "Summertime!" heralds the arrival of a major new talent: songs like "Don't Be A Jerk, Johnny" and "Submarine" showcase The Drums' updated take on 50s surf rock and pop, whilst "Down By The Water" is a beautiful lingering ballad that wouldn't sound amiss on the Twin Peaks soundtrack.
