“Lets Kick Shell!” is an officially licensed album by “Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles”. The band is comprised of Long Island natives (Chris Wall, David Kaplan, Brandon Dove & Dan Gluszak) who came together to pay tribute to their favorite songs from the NYC sewers which otherwise were never commercially released. You can preview the 5 track album below.
I have listened to the album and it’s a perfect tribute to the 1987 cartoon series. The opening theme cover captures the essence of the original with the performers even replicating the the four ninja turtle’s dialogue clips. It’s a wonderful release and I think a welcome one for Ninja Turtle fans who have never seen an official release of any of the cartoon series or video game music in the past, it has Turtle Power. You can purchase a digital copy of the album on bandcamp now for $4.99. If you want to grab the LP release it is available for $10.87 at the Enjoy The Ride Records Web Store. And it looks like they are selling fast, at the time of writing this post both the Splinter and Shredder LPs were already sold out.
