When I was just three years old, I remembered watching the Aquabats play at (what I thought
then was the greatest showplace on Earth) the Dunes in Vegas. Since then they have moved
to bigger and bigger venues, including: The Morris Day Festival, The Hands Across the Am Pm
Mini-Mart (to benefit all the people who are starving for oil and oil related products)
and all manner of clubs and recreation halls.
But until this album (The Return of the Aquabats) was conceived, I never thought I would
see this side of a band like this. The soft side, the sensitive side, the caring side.
From Rod's intricate but touching rhythms to Christian's thoughtful and provoking lyrics,
from Chad's hard hitting balladry to Ben's cascading but questioning leads, this band has
got the forward thinking shyness that a band in this business needs to reach the type of
people that are always "on the go!" So sit back, spin this disc and repeat after me,
"I told you so...!"
Discoveries in Aquabeat

...Most people think that Aquabeat (or "Post-apocalypso-spudrock") is just a new thing or
recent fad. These people fall out of my elite group of friends and probably should be
shunned.
The aquabeat sound first surfaced in the 1600's with the Mongolian smash single, "Let's do
the Aquaromp!" and more recently continued somewhere in France with THE PIGBAT Orchestra's
"Gottalotaaqua". Heck! Kids and squids have rocked out to the Aquabeat rhythm since
zombies first bought squirt guns!
The Greatest Aquabeat release to hit the back of the music industry's head came out way back
in 1997, entitled "THE FURY OF THE AQUABATS!" by an 8 or 9 piece outfit called (oddly
enough), THE AQUA...BATS!
This album changed my life and my slacks. I endorse this album with all my heart, mind,
and diet drinks. So get your boots on, sell that farm, or pawn that rifle. Just prepare
yourselves for the fury!
