Album Notes & Community Reviews

Spearheaded by the wildly prolific Billy Childish, 'Beach Bums Must Die' is a raucous, lo-fi assault of primitive three-chord rock and roll. The unpolished recording proudly channels the rebellious, frantic spirit of 1960s beat music and raw garage rock.

Genres

Descriptors: lo-fi, unpolished, DIY, distorted, retro
