Laika & The Cosmonauts. Local Warming ‎(CD, Album, Ltd, Unofficial). GPOP- 5. Laika & The Cosmonauts. Local Warming ‎(CD, Album).

The Finland-based surf rockers' first studio album in almost seven years finds them on terra firma. Not straight surf, this is rather surf-influenced instrumental guitar rock with touches of prog and the occasional Zappa-esque flourish. The band has shelved some of the experiments in rap, reggae, and electronica they toyed with on Absurdistan, but still playfully push the boundaries of their genre with twisty tempos and textured, nuanced arrangements.

Laika & The Cosmonauts are not only Finland's Surf band, they are considered by many to be the greatest rock'n'roll band in all of Scandinavia. That said, describing the Cosmonauts as simply a "surf" band falls short of telling the whole story of these masterful instrumentalists. While the Cosmonauts were initially inspired by such American instro-kings as Dick Dale and The Ventures, Local Warningfinds the band digging deeper into the genre and referencing UK greats The Shadows and legendary producer Joe Meek ("Telstar")

Laika & the Cosmonauts were a Finnish rock band. They had the same lineup from the time they formed in 1987 until they stopped recording in 2008. The band was named after Laika, a Soviet space dog that died on board Sputnik 2 in 1957. They relied heavily on the Finnish rautalanka (electric guitar) tradition
