about

Austin-based surf rock band The Avocados are proud to announce their new album ¡Ensalada! The energetic 11-track instrumental album is set for release on November 13th on Found Object Records.

¡Ensalada! showcases the breadth of styles the band brings to surf rock. The album opens with the energy of “Bampheus,” blending a classic surf sound with a punk-rock edge. Then “Tequila Derby” brings a feel good funky vibe to it, reminiscent of 60’s era go-go. “Chamuko” is the band’s take on Greg’s composition “Shabuki” which was recorded by Golden Dawn Arkestra. Alex adds, “We deconstructed the song and put it back together. It has a really spy movie trip about it. We’re always having fun with the names of our songs. So I re-dubbed it ‘Chamuko’ which means a devil or demon in Spanish. But it’s also the name of a spicy sweet candy I used to have as a kid in Mexico City!” “Surf Juan O’ Juan” was composed by John Branch originally for an ad for a surf apparel company. It has a fun, classic surf sound about it. “Pistolero” is a spaghetti western nod to Ennio Morriccone on this short, moody piece with a cool cinematic feel to it. Sam Patlove’s adds his trumpet chops to round it out. The album flows from Side A to Side B begging it to be replayed. The last track “Malkaus” is a staple in The Avocados live show, which morphs in many directions when they play it live. A great way to close out the album and to flip the record over again.

Although I normally like to play music in mixes of 3-5 artists at a time, the "long track" on this album actually works better than all the songs played separately and mixed with other music. Some great psychedelic and surf guitar work on here. If you like this, try Golden Dawn Arkestra and Ouzo Bazooka. xpatofthemind
