Description

The kings of modern surf rock return in signature form. Los Straitjackets continue to carry the torch of instrumental rock with their unmistakable blend of reverb-drenched guitars, driving rhythms, and vintage-inspired energy.

Known for their iconic lucha libre masks and high-energy performances, the band has built a reputation as one of the most consistent and respected acts in the surf revival movement. Their sound pulls directly from the golden era of 1960s instrumental rock while staying sharp, punchy, and modern in its execution.

This yellow vinyl pressing brings that sound to life with a bold visual to match. Clean tones, tight arrangements, and that unmistakable twang make this an essential spin for any surf collection.

Whether you are deep into the genre or just getting your feet wet, this is a staple record from one of the most important bands in modern surf music.

Why We Carry It

A no-brainer. Los Straitjackets are one of the pillars of modern surf, and anything they touch is worth having in the bins. This is the kind of record that always moves and always delivers.

The Ventures, Dick Dale, Link Wray, modern surf and classic instrumental rock
