I sincerely mean this when I write this: please make more Girls on the Beach albums. I really love Splif Tape, reminds me of Julie Ruin during that timeframe as well (2015ish).

oh, man! you made my day with this comment. those days are long behind me. we were young, dumb, and inebriated. if you're looking for the bands we were trying to sound like, there was a resurgence of this surf/girl group sound in the early 2010s. look for bands like Shannon and the Clams, Hunx and His Punx, Nobunny, Harlem, Ty Segall, Thee Oh Sees.. basically anyone on the now defunct Burger Records
