**Surfbort** Surfbort’s third studio album, Reality Star, strikes the perfect balance between life’s harsh realities and the delusional dream we all chase to make existence a little more bearable. It’s a record that celebrates contradiction: raw yet dreamy, chaotic yet deeply alive. Frontwoman Dani Miller’s vocals are a force of nature—dynamic, unfiltered, and fiercely human. She moves effortlessly from brash, low-frequency punk poetry to airy, melodic pop-punk interludes, all tied together by that iconic Dani twang that’s instantly recognizable. The result is a sound that feels both modern and nostalgic, a reminder of when we had to romanticize our chaos just to keep going. Reality Star channels the spirit of punk through every possible lens, from the frenetic energy of Black Flag and Dead Kennedys to the playful eccentricity of the B-52s and the grungy vulnerability of Nirvana. The album pulses with the electricity of Surfbort’s legendary live shows—loud, unrestrained, and joyfully rebellious. It oozes fun, leaving listeners with a feeling of youthful resilience. At its core, Reality Star is about finding light in the madness. It’s a rallying cry to laugh through the pain, to be a rebel in a world that keeps trying to bring you down, and to have a good fucking time doing it. Being in reality is the ultimate act of raw-dogging life. With pounding, energetic drums, raucous guitars, and a contagious sense of unity, Surfbort once again proves why no crowd is more alive than theirs—and Reality Star only fans the flames higher. The album was recorded by Adam Laidlaw, Riff Cuéllar, and Luis Flores, mixed by Adam Laidlaw, and mastered by Riff Cuéllar at The Boat in Los Angeles, 2025.
