New York's Premier Instrumental Trio. Sounds like a knife fight between Dick Dale and the Dead Kennedys, refereed by Motorhead's Lemmy! The music is impressive enough on it's own, but the fact that it was recorded with all-analog equipment gives this disc an authenticity lacking in today's revivalist clones. 4 out of 5.

Bio
With hot-rod imagery,demented surf guitar licks,and leather-clad southern regalia you'd think Mofos were from Southern California, not New York. But a listen to their music makes it seem like they're from another planet altogether. Combining elements of Dick Dale, Link Wray, the Ventures, Motorhead and the Ramones, Mofos have created a genre unto themselves. Composed of lead guitarist/songwriter Gary Siperko, bassist Eric Trichon, and drummers Matt Saccucimarano and Brian Wilson (aka Willie B), the Mofos have been making a name for themselves in their hometown and beyond with their top-notch musicianship and original compositions. Picture this: Siperko hunched over his Fender Strat, schreeching distortion out of his tube amp, while Trichon's pounds out distortion-laden bass lines, and Marano's seemingly effortless rapid-fire drum fills raise the level of urgency so high that at any moment you think that the stage might burst into flames.
