The first two things listed under the "Artists We Also Like" section of King Ghidora's deliciously silly Facebook profile are Dick Dale and Man or Astro-man?, so you can probably guess what kind of music this band plays. Originally from outer space but now living in McMinnville, King Ghidora are a masked quartet that make real-deal surf-rock that falls in line with that genre's traditions: roiling drums, waves of reverberant electric guitar, occasional theremin appearances, and no vocals. Put Dale's tubular tones on one end of the spectrum and Astro-man's space-punk schtick on the other and you'll find King Ghidora somewhere near the middle. They call it "sonic surf rock." You might just call it fun, at least for a night. BEN SALMON
