God I'm still blown away by how good of a title "Surfin' GBA" is

[@minty_644]

GBA= Good Boy Artist. In other words, Louie Zong

[@SlyHikari03]

GBA also referring to the Gameboy advance.

[@gerstburst6967]

A keep thinking of a play on words from Beach Boys - Surfin in the USA. Like "Surfin' in the GBA"

[@rockstarrzz7171]

The song title is just 'Surfin' USA' so this is a direct reference to that​@gerstburst6967

[@AMJProductions]

Honestly, Louie Zong is a music god for making Lavender Town sound the way it does here

[@MutatedIce1]

This album feels like the soundtrack of a pokémon movie with a beach setting and surf rock lavender town is the evil team theme

[@MG-yy4ve]

Alternatively: same concept but Lavender Town is the goth surfer's theme song whom the MC gains a crush on and The Valley of Pokémon is the theme song of the antagonistic, pretentious rich kid surfer team

That version of the Lavender Town song just gives off 60's Vibes. Like it belongs in a Surf Movie that has a creepy vibe to it as if Lavender Town is that creepy place no one really goes to very often or something like that.

[@staroutofspace4986]

Lavender Town sounds like the theme of the bully in the surf movie who no one stands up to because he's the undefeated surf champion.

[@unhindegd]

Lavender town gives me summer ween vibes like if Halloween was in the summer and your roaming and running around an escape house or a guy in a scary costume like Scooby-Doo.

[@skidude121]

Damn, your Lavender Town’s a rude-ass tune, absolutely love it.

Surfer Lavender town is the most blessed and cursed energy I have heard

[@theedwardian]

Surf rock is criminally underated. Also, it's effectively death metal with dancey drum beats.

[@chaosco6462]

Oh my heart... the nostalgia of Littleroot's theme. I grew up on Ruby, playing it during car rides, school breaks, it was truly so important to me. Hearing the songs from that game still bring me to tears. These are awesome Louie, love you man.

[@missingno.8809]

Ok, this is hands down, one of the most creative covers I've heard. Such a neat lil album. Definitely going on my BBQ playlist!
