New Dum Dum Girls

On the heels of their amazingly thick EP enttiled He Gets Me High, the Dum Dum Girls offer up more new goodness. The band found their sound in the EP to produce a record of early 60's inspired pop-punkish rock tracks with significant space and depth. Too many bands in the genre turn to the distant reverb sound (ala Best Coast). Dum Dum Girls, instead, have thickened-up that sound and located a lot of space in their tracks for a full sound that I really dig. These are tracks so wonderfully thick that you can hear the recorded space; when you listen, you can hear the depth of the room and the place of the instruments in it. Heard several complaints that the sound is too Tarantino-filmish ... but Im liking the full sound with the clean vocals.

I like this track quite a bit more than the ones put up for me too listen to previously... This one has a really cool Mazzy Star vibe going on that reminds me of High School (in a good way)...
