The Apemen - Surfvival of de Onbeschofste (Nitro)

Supercharged Euro instro surf music.  The Apemen put a killer pace on their tunes, with a big aggro sound, dirty reverb, and hi-octane drums.  Lots of winners on this disc, including originals along with crazed versions of Surf Party (called Het Grote Surffeest), Bahareba, Space Race (the Gary Paxton tune), and the Trashmen vocal number, King of the Surf (sung in Spanish).  This was their last release I think, from around 1995.
