Surfin' Transylvania
03:12
|
|||
|
I was getting pretty hot under the full moon
So, to myself, I thought: I'll go surf a typhoon
Let's all go down to Transylvania
Let's all go down to Transylvania
Let's all go down to Transylvania and surf
Surfin' Transylvania
Now I'm catchin' graves and hangin' 13
We're all a bit strange in Transylvan-i-a
What a time we'll have
If you and me can go
And hit that cool ghoul water
My baby knows that I'll be catchin' waves until I-
Surfin' waves until I-
My baby knows that I'll be
Surfin' waves until I die and come back again

Trick 'r treat on the ocean with me
And we'll go see
Nessie and her friends
They're my friends too
A giant squid
The Loch Ness Monster
Off the grid
Giant gobstoppers
Creatures of the deep
Awake from their sleep
On Halloween
All so serene
So come with me
See the things you've never seen
In the deep blue
Waiting for me and you

Urban Legend Island
Sasquatch, Sasquatch
How big are your feet?
What size sandals are those?
Mothman on vacation from the windy city
Chupacabra, he comes out at night to stargaze at the sky
Yeti trying to tan on the beach, but instead he gets burned
The creatures who have stalked our world are all together now on this island of beasts
The U.S. Government doesn't want you to know, but I know the way
Get ready, the coordinates are-

The Graveyard Twist
03:05
|
|||
|
I have a new dance
That I want you to learn
So come, take my hand
And we'll do the Graveyard Twist
Step into this hole I've dug
Sift your heels into the mud
Let the dirt fall onto you
The Graveyard Twist is what we do
Everyone get buried and do the Graveyard Twist
Everyone get buried alive and do the Graveyard Twist

Goin' Soon
03:08

|
They say the world is ending
But that's not true
'Cause the earth will still be spinnin'
When we're all through
We had a good run baby
But that's it for us
Everything we did means nothin'
When we bite the dust
I know we're all goin' soon
So baby won't you let me go with you?
They say we'll never make it
And I guess they're right
But in the end we never treated
This place quite right
Don't go near the Black Lagoon
Or Mariana's Trench
'Cause we poisoned all that water
And the Kraken's dead
I know we're all goin' soon
So baby won't you let me go with you?

Beware (Turn Back Now)

Beware, turn back now
If you can find your own way out
Beware, turn back now
If you are still alive somehow

Frankenstein Blues
03:14
|
|||
|
I got them blues
Them Frankenstein blues
What have you done to me?
I never asked to be
They call me monster
That wretched thing
When all I truly want
Is someone to hang out with me
Chemistry
Electricity
And now they got me walkin' around
Like some kind of freak
They want me dead
Even the doctor himself
I am so sad
But I'm afraid you've met your match

Skelefriend
05:19
|

|
In a graveyard
Maybe on a beach
A spooky castle
Stalking through the streets
We'll be jivin'
We'll be hangin' 10
With my friendly little skeleton
Hanging with my little friend
My friendly little skeleton
Don't you run and don't be shy
He is really a great guy
I'm here to put to rest the myth
Of the spooky scary skeleton
So I beg you, don't let your bones quake
Unless you're jivin' it would be a mistake
We're out dancing
Anywhere or time
and I follow if you catch my rhyme
In dark alleys
Or a haunted house
A good influence
(Except for when he's shooting up)

My Christine
04:15
|
|||
|
She's the coolest car I ever saw
Yeah, she's my Christine
She's the sweetest song I ever sang
Yeah, she's my Christine
Yeah, me and her, we do everything together
Of course, you're always welcome to tag along
Between the three of us, things have never been better
But sometimes she gets a little bit jealous of you
She's got nerves of steel and four slick wheels
Yeah, she's my Christine
She's got a loving heart for the most part
Yeah, she's my Christine
Don't get me wrong, I'm still in love with you
But without Christine I don't know what I'd do
She's got a drive to kill
'Cause she can feel that you're wrong for me
I'm sorry, you're so sweet
But you can't compete, darlin', with my Christine
If you should die, you know that I would cry
You always were the second best
But if I've got Christine I think I'll be alright
She's waiting for you somewhere out of sight
Ooh my Christine
Four wheels, headlights
You got what I like
Rear view, engine
You got what I want

Doombuggy

|

|
Hop into my doombuggy
We'll forever, ever be
Dancing with the ghosts and ghouls
We won't have to go to school
Hop into my doombuggy
We'll go wandering til we see
Moving paintings on the wall
Items floating through the hall
Hop into my doombuggy
Can you hear em? Come with me
You can come or you can stay
But of course, there's always my way
Hop into my doombuggy
Down the corridor of doors
Into the grim graveyard
Listen to the hellhound's howls

The Screech Boys Kingsport, Tennessee
The Screech Boys formed in November of 2019 by Snarl Wilson. In 2022, Snarl consumed a life-changing slice of mushroom pizza that led to the embodiment of energies in the form of Juice Brainstem and Mike Love who awoke in the Glub Tub. In 2023 the token they/them cat goblin Brian "Buffalo" Billson showed up on the band's porch, and their potential has since become infinite. ... more

For some reason, what I previewed and the real songs was somewhat different - maybe because of the cover art? But I definitely don't regret something more spacial than expected. The recent Ocean drifting in space.
go to album
Haunted house surf music with twinkly guitar lines and fantastical lyrics concerning ghosts, black holes, and magic potions.
go to album
Buffalo surf rockers The Hamiltones serve up more jagged riffs and racing tempos on this sci-fi-themed outing.
go to album
The debut LP from Kioea is dreamy psychedelic surf music that calls back to the '60s while feeling remarkably contemporary.
