Beatnik Termites - Girl Crazy! (2003)

“

The assiduous Termites recorded, and released their "Girl Crazy!" CD in 2003 followed-up with two years of continuous touring. It's hard to believe that the Termites' "Girl Crazy!" is not a Greatest Hits release when you listen to hit-after-hit-song -- but it's simply the latest output from the band. On "Girl Crazy!", the Termites deliver nine new hit songs demonstrating their mastery of the unique style of modernized sock-hop power-pop which they developed on their seminal 1989 recordings. And they are still playing those same bitter sweet, instantly catchy bubblegum melodies that you can sing along with the first time you hear. "Girl Crazy!" delivers nine instant classics with all of the 50's songwriting hooks that have made this pop staple infamous in the underground music scene. The Beatnik Termites have clearly gone infectious!
