From the NYC submissions: Sheen Marina’s bizarre surf rock

Alternating between swirling, lawless sea swells of sound and spacey-lounge jazz, Brooklyn-based band Sheen Marina is as unpredictable as a rogue wave. Sounding every bit Mars Volta as lo-fi sunshine-y surf rock, the band’s chill-beach tendencies are punctuated by a looming chaotic (and math-y at once) madness that threatens to take charge at any given moment. Despite this, the band comes off as tight, raw and endlessly interesting – leaving the listener picking up new song elements with every pass. Sheen Marina’s sound was made for summer (with a twist), so check out their recently dropped single, a rather irrecognizable cover of "Gettin’ Hungry" by the Beach Boys, and their first EP, Coda Arms, here. – Olivia Sisinni
