Vinyl LP pressing of this 2009 release. Hailing from sunny San Diego, California, Christmas Island plays music that on the surface is happy and poppy. There is a dark undercurrent to their brand of lo-fi Pop/Punk-it is joyous and almost twee while secretly depressed and deeply disturbed. Citing Tronics, Urinals, Television Personalities, the Clean, Versatile Newts, and the Fall as influences, Christmas Island is Beach Boys-style, sunny Southern Californian pop by way of the late-'70s/early-'80s UK DIY scene.
