This album has become one of my favorites. The guitar riffs grab you and the bass ain't bad either!

Like a fool, I had a chance to see these guys live when they were in Kalamazoo. SO STUPID! This group is one of the best bands that blends of rock, funk, indie (what ever that is), and a little hip hop into a package that will be candy to your ears. This album covers every high and low you can desire in an music album. I should also note, much like the title to my review, that this band in a way could reflect The Pillows, but at the same time hold their own style. If you love Japanese rock & funk, you must have this album, and you should really look into the ZOOBOMBS!

i mean it! this is such a funky, fun, outrageous album that i can't listen to it without starting to boogie. even now, i'm singing "everybody wanna bomb ze bomb now!" if you've heard Welcome Back, Zoobombs! then you already know that they can rock, but did you know they could be so funky? the keyboards will make your head bop, the bass will make your rump wiggle, and the vocals will make you sing along as you smile your fool head off. dang, the Japanese know how to love American music so much more than Americans do.

The follow-up to "Welcome Back, Zoobombs!", this album continues the same unrestrained rock energy with "1-2-3" and "South Central Rock" before breaking into their funkiest number ever - "Mo' Funky" (with an extended dub track!). There's lots of great stuff to follow - but the slower tempo songs like "Pleasure Drop" and "4190" don't have the power of Zoobombs at their best. And while the laughably-bad "Bomb the Bomb" begs not to be taken seriously, don't miss the final track, "Don's Dream," which echos the Velvet Underground's "Sister Ray" and will remind you that the Zoobombs can rock as hard as the best bands of all time!
