Editor's note

Satanic Surfers, the California punk band with Rikk Agnew

A straightforward punk group from Oceanside that put out nine albums between 1990 and 2006.

For a quick sense of their sound, try 'Better Off Today' or 'Blissfully Ignorant.' They're both pretty direct examples of what the band does.

The Satanic Surfers formed in 1989 with Rikk Agnew on guitar after his time in X, and their self-titled debut came out the next year. Tracks like 'Better Off Today' and 'Hard To Be Yourself' kept exploring personal and social tensions without softening their approach. They developed a following in underground rock circles where that unapologetic energy found an audience.

The band's lineup shifted over time with Agnew as the consistent member. They released albums including 'Heralding the End,' 'Six-Gun Surf,' and 'Black Love' across those years.
