Surf, Drags & Rock 'n' Roll is the sixth album released by surf music band The Surfin' Lungs, released in 2006 on the Spanish label Wild Punk Records and featuring another new line-up, with Sputnik Weazel replacing Ray Webb in the drumseat. Apart from being a soloist in his own right, Sputnik also previously played in a band called The X-ocettes. All 13 tracks were written by the group who had moved to a new label, Spain's Wild Punk Records. Recorded in Brighton, the album had a grittier edge to it than their previous release, although the subject matter remained the same, with punk meeting surf head on. Vocal duties were shared around, with Clive Gilling headlining two songs, while new member Sputnik Weazel grabbing the spotlight on She Can't Dance.
