Sounds Like: "...a powerful machine running on nuclear energy! ... a mind-crushing juggernaut of surf power!" -- The Wolfman, August 14, 2007 *** ***"Bar Blanket BingoSporting a snazzy Hawaiian shirt, I headed to the appropriately named College Street Bar to kick off my long weekend in the clubs with the surfalicious music of the Eradicators. Quentin Tarantino would love them. The Toronto-based band's rolling sounds took me back to my days in Hollywood working as an extra in Elvis Presley beach movies.... Wait, I never did that.But these guys were so solid that while standing in the middle of an intimate crowd on this scorcher of an evening, I was convinced I'd done some background work in 1963's Fun In Acapulco, or even Clambake."-- Jason Richards, NOW Magazine, "My Week in the Clubs", Music in Toronto, August 9 - 15, 2007
