Hailing from our own South Florida, Surfer Blood sort of blew up within the past year. Making multiple appearances at CMJ in New York and SXSW in Austin, Texas, along with a coveted Best New Music stamp by Pitchfork for their album Astro Coast, these guys are huge within the indie-rock scene. Exuding an aura of 90's alternative-indie rock reminiscent to that of Pavement, Built to Spill and Weezer circa-Blue Album/Pinkerton, Surfer Blood consistently showcase their strong suit: guitars. Peppering in some afro-beat percussion that seems to be popular at the moment, Surfer Blood have certainly come a long way. Their track Harmonix is one of the record's slow songs but carries a lot of density and weight with the guitars.
