When you think of Palm Beach, Florida, what comes to mind? Palm trees swaying gently in the balmy breeze? Scantily-clad bikini buxom babes rollerblading down an infinite slab of coral-colored concrete? How about anthemic, bombastic, life-affirming indie pop? If the latter didn't occur to you, meet Surfer Blood (John Paul Pitts, Tyler Schwarz, Thomas Fekete and Brian Black): they call West Palm Beach home and, while still in their early 20s, have penned an album worth of catchy, summery indie songs that even the most hook-laden power pop band would rightfully be jealous of. Astro Coast is their debut album, on Kanine Records. Their first single release, "Swim (To Reach the End)", with its deliciously deafening swaths of reverb and feedback, comes across like early Orange Juice covering every song on Weezer's Blue Album at once. Let's go surfin' now, everybody's learning how! Seriously.
