Mr. Romweber doses his surf and punkabilly hi-jinx with just enough sideways sophistication to keep things appealingly just a touch off center.  The highly charged churn guitarist Dex and sibling drummer Sara generate is marked with the occasional left turn, progression wise, or the unexpected metric.  When in ballad mode, the line between the true-hearted and the tongue-in-cheek doesn’t always seem so sharp, which isn’t necessarily a bad thing.  Strong tracks include “Roll On”, “So Sad About Us” and “Blue Surf”.
