    Somewhat surf-ish punk a la Crashdog finds space here in five songs by Ikthus. Lyrically, we get some revival preaching ("Follow Me," "Kiss the Son" and "A Way") and some humorous teaching in "Lazy": "You can have coffee, you can have tea/ But me and my friends, we will drink lazy/ When you come, bring a pillow that feels just right/ Cause it's gonna be a lazy night!" "Monkey's Uncle," a parody on evolution, conjures up visions of the original "Meow Mix" commercial. For ordering info, write: PO Box 25665, Tamarac FL 33320.
