For a young rock and roll band, few countries of origin imply a “sound” in the way that New Zealand does. I imagine this to be the musical equivalent of growing up the younger sibling of your high school’s valedictorian. Trying to live up to such high expectations must be a frustrating experience. Surf City takes this responsibility in stride, melding together the Dunedin sound of their predecessors with 80′s C86 jangle, 90′s slack-rock, and modern day indie rock.
