HTR020 THE VERTICALS: 8-TRACK 10"/CD
The second full length by the Finnish surf punks, THE VERTICALS offers 8 new tracks. When they were formed in 1996, The Verticals was highly influenced by "old farts" such as THE VENTURES and SANTANA, the famous Finnish group LAIKA & THE COSMONAUTS, MAN... OR ASTRO-MAN? and LINK WRAY, but after a while they really haven't sounded anything else than their own style of "instrumental surfcore".
