So, if your favorite musical genre is religious surf music, you finally have an album to buy. I can’t believe this is an album, but here it is – Jesus Christ Surferstar.

Jesus Christ Surferstar (Album)

Jesus Christ Surferstar (Album)

At first I figured it was just a funny name for a surf album, but it’s actually a surf version of the Andrew Lloyd Weber musical. Really.

Also surprising, it’s good. It was released in 2003 and it has a few surf bands I recognize.
