Recorded in just seven days on Rob Zombie's Zombie A Go-Go label, the Bomboras' fourth album is a collection of 15 tracks (only two of which are longer than three minutes), comprised almost entirely of fast, furious instrumentals that combine the surf of Dick Dale and the frenzy of the Ramones with a decidedly dark overtone. Of course, this all adds up to goofy fun; you almost expect to hear a surf version of the Munsters theme (which is, actually, covered by Los Straitjackets on Halloween Hootenanny on the same label). Based in Southern California, Shane Van Dyke on bass, Dave Klein on drums, Gregg Hunt on lead guitar, Jake Cavaliere on organ, and Johnny De Villa on rhythm guitar churn out rollicking concoctions that don't come up for air with a psychotic bent that is raw and instantly accessible. It's great party music, whether you're at the beach, home, or a club, and it's a perfect Lp to have on hand for Halloween. [amg](((-360-))) Ultra-Space Vinyl Rip of their 4th & final album, one of my favorite Surf/Garage Revival slabs. Non stop surfin' action with lotsa reverb, farfisa & fuzz. Killer instros like Land of the One Percenters, War of the Satellites, Project Zero, Adventures Through Inner Space, Playa de los Muertos, or Night of the Bomboras gonna take you to the lost Surfadelic planet. There's couple of cool covers as The Ventures'space/surf classic Hot Line and 60's garage rock shouter Keep in Touch [Canadian Rogues]. You've gotta Get In The Line. Dig!!!
