Man, I love when someone new like this comes along! Yeah, I know the Bambi Molesters aren't BRAND new (this disc came out in 1997). But they've got a real strong, fresh surfy sound that has very impressive interplay between lead and rhythm guitar over melodies that really grab you. Did I mention that they're from Croatia, and they've got the full vintage gear setup? This disc was essentially recorded live in Zagreb - all in one sitting with no overdubs, and then mixed by Phil Dirt in California. Every song on here is very evocative of surf music and the beach - with different paces and rhythms. Songs like Hawaii Joe, Point Break, and Glider are just gorgeous, and then there are harder numbers like Big Time Action.
