Thee Cormans

Musical Group

Instrumental surf/garage band noted for horror-film aesthetics, reverb-heavy guitars and fuzz sounds; released records on the In The Red label.

Reviews identify the group as an instrumental surf/garage outfit. The "Halloween Record w/ Sound Effects" (vinyl) and the single "Biker Bitch" were released on the In The Red label. Review copy lists the four members' stage names as Shaved Ape, Creature, Fagenstein and Tadpole. Critics compare their sound to Dick Dale, the Cramps, Davie Allan, Link Wray and Phantom Surfers.

Two DeBaser reviews praise Thee Cormans' instrumental surf/garage sound, heavy on reverb, fuzz and horror-movie atmosphere. 'Halloween Record w/ Sound Effects' is highlighted as a standout, vinyl-only tribute to Z-grade horror. The single 'Biker Bitch' is described as ragged, rude surf rock with filmic biker vibes. Both reviews give generally favorable ratings (4/5).

For:Fans of instrumental surf and garage rock, collectors of horror-themed vinyl and In The Red label followers.

 It's like listening to the wails of the cursed child of Dick Dale and the Cramps

 Shaved Ape, Creature, Fagenstein, and Tadpole, these are the names of the four Cormans, and they ooze irony and silliness from every pore, making them one of the best novelties of 2011 and "Halloween Records" one of the best garage releases of the year.
