Let's Rock Cassette Compilation (1989) put out by Don Smith, a college DJ from WMUC (University of MD College Park). Monsters from the Surf perform Cheap Beer. For a few years in the late-'80s/early-'90s he had a weekly radio show called "Don Smith's Teen Scene", which featured cool music as well as the occasional local band playing live in the studio. The Monsters played twice (once in 1989 and again in 1990) during his show. The 1990 performance was recorded off the radio. Unfortunately the first show was not recorded and is believed lost. This cassette was pretty hard to find even back then, as not very many were produced and they were only sold in a handful of local record stores. DeCeased Sampler EP (1992) 1 pressing on DeCeased Records (DR-003) 1,000 copies. Included 1 track each by the Monsters From The Surf, The Rhomboids, Dait Bait and the Ubangis. This was originally given away free with Brutarian magazine #7. The Monsters perform Quasimoto. This EP is still available in limited quantity from Trash Palace and is well worth having.

Monsters from the Surf CD (2005) Frap-a-phonic Sound.
