5.0 out of 5 stars Man those cats can whale!
Once I had a listen to these cats I threw my Boss Martian and Phantom Surfer records in the trash. The Bomboras have become the band to watch out for . I can't get enough of sound that will send you into a fuzzed out frenzie!

2.0 out of 5 stars review from Roma
Hello music fan - here is 'Alto' from Italia - I return this cd because it was too "hollywood" for me - it sound like nothing like what I expect - i like the lofi of Savage Isles more. I like a lot better the old cd Savage Isle because it sound not so 'hollywood produceri' - for me this is too many people that try to make it like a heavy metal record. I say...

5.0 out of 5 stars Totally cool pseudo-soundtrack, September 1, 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: It Came from Pier 13! (Audio CD)
I just wish they could make it into a real movie! The Bomboras have again created a total sonic experience. You can practically see the lovely young surver-chicks as they race away from the monster. The world needs more music like this--it has a roaring energy that has been sorely missing in today's music.

Hello music fan - here is 'Alto' from Italia - I return this cd because it was too "hollywood" for me - it sound like nothing like what I expect - i like the lofi of Savage Isles more. I like a lot better the old cd Savage Isle because it sound not so 'hollywood produceri' - for me this is too many people that try to make it like a heavy metal record. I say to sayve the money for "savage island" - there is still some GOOD song on this disc thouhg, i like 'pier 13' and 'the Creeper' is molto molto. the organs is very well played and the fuzz guitars sounds cool. I say this because the records is expensive for me here and I don't like to be dissappoint. ciao!

1.0 out of 5 stars Generic, Dull, yada, yada, yada..., February 25, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: It Came from Pier 13! (Audio CD)
I did not hear one good or original thing on this album. It sounds like a bunch of kids experimenting a reverb unit in their garage. The songs are too repetitive and showcases a general lack of musical talent...if you are going to listen to surf music, I recommend the Boss Martians. The best thing this album has going for it is the cover art.

1.0 out of 5 stars Too Much Repetition with this disc!, January 12, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: It Came from Pier 13! (Audio CD)
I thought that this album was kind of a bummer because after the 3rd track it all sounded the same to me. Yes i admit that the tones are cool but they're songwriting is not anywhere as interesting as other bands of the genre - namely the Untamed Youth, Boss Martians, MOAM, and others. I feel that this album was not sincere in its attempt to do vocals like the aforementioned groups. More like they were forced to try and do them. I do like their album Savage Island a lot as it seems natural - this one does not. ronni
