Full Petal Jacket is the seventh album by the surf music band The Surfin' Lungs, released in 2010 on the Spanish label Wild Punk Records. The album features a rare lead vocal bassist Steve Dean, who wrote After All This Time about his wife. All 14 tracks are self-penned continuing in the surf, sun, and girls style for which the Lungs are renowned. Lacking the harder, punkier edge of Surf, Drags, Full Petal Jacket is a prime example of how to execute surf pop.
