Surf Curse is an American surf-rock band from Reno, Nevada, formed by lead vocalist and guitarist Nick Rattigan and drummer Jacob Rubeck. "Freaks" is a track from their 2013 independently released debut album, Buds.
Rattigan's dreams of his love interest provide a sanctuary where he can be with someone he deeply cares for without the fear of being rejected or ostracized as a freak. In this angsty song, he expresses a desire to remain in his dream state, as it allows him to escape from everyone except that special person.
The song alludes to Charles Burns' comic book series Black Hole. My head is filled with parasites Black holes cover up my eyes I dream of you almost every night Hopefully In Burns' Black Hole, a sexually transmitted infection leads to teenagers undergoing grotesque mutations. They become outcasts, commonly referred to as "freaks," who the rest of society shuns.
