Surfin' M.O.D. is an EP from American crossover thrash band, M.O.D.. It was released in 1988 on Megaforce Records and follows 1987's debut album, U.S.A. for M.O.D.. In 1989, the band subsequently released Gross Misconduct, their second full length-studio album.
Apart from Billy Milano, it was a completely different line-up from the first album little more than a year previous – and included Tim Mallare on drums who later went on to play with thrash metal band, Overkill.
This release has two parts:
-"The Movie" (track 1) which is a spoken word story features actual songs in between the dialogue for a fake movie.
-"The Sound Track Without The Movie" (tracks 2-8). It is the actual music from the movie separated into tracks and without all the dialogue.
The CD lists the following erroneous tracklist on the cover:
This tracklist is in fact incorrect, as "The Movie" is track one, "Sargent Drexell Theme" is only included as part of track one, and there is an unlisted CD-bonus track ("New Song") as track eight.
Album includes several soundbytes from the 1987 film "Back to the Beach" Starring Frankie Avalon,Annette Funicello,Lori Loughlin and Connie Stevens.
