Els Surfing Sirles sing: "What moves us is the desire of breaking everything into pieces". And in every one of their incendiary concerts they're a millimeter away of confirming this. It was necessary for a band to bring rock'n'roll to this limit, where attitude and noise burst into an explosion of ideas. Els Surfing Sirles sing to drug-addicts, big boned girls and young punks that are into rumba... they even pervert the Fc Barcelona hymn.
