Goosebumps

San Diego’s Matt Bahamas and Jojo Keylargo are Heavy Hawaii, and Goosebumps is their 2013 debut album. The opening “Washing Machine” plays with the eerie warbling tones of His Name Is Alive before Bahamas and Keylargo layer in West Coast vocal harmonies recalling The Beach Boys. Keeping within that vintage Hawthorne, Calif., vibe, the keyboards swirl and chime like Merry-Go-Round–era Emitt Rhodes. The plunderphonic “Tijuana Teal” follows, with looped guitar parts, six-string slide leads, paddling drums, and singing that’s pitched down low enough to sound demonic. The standout tune “Airborne Kawasaki” bubbles and pops with surfy tones mixed with endearingly murky fidelity—as if Ariel Pink had collaborated with Beachwood Sparks in the mid-'90s. If you can get past production that sounds like somebody's putting a finger down on a spinning record, “She Gets” is catchy, psychedelic beach pop that sounds like it’s playing through the crusty old speakers of a half-working carnival carousel.
