I'd never heard of Surferosa, I just stumbled on this album through Amazon's recommendations system, so glad I did! Just a shame I'm several years behind everyone else. Took me a while to think of a sound to compare them with, but think a modernised and vastly more musical version of Shampoo and you'll be getting close. Lively, bouncy, shouty, passionate, fun. Ok, "Bim Bam Boom" may not have the greatest of depths lyrically and may lack a tad in terms of overlays of emotional nuances, but its bloody good fun. As is the whole album in fact, utterly tremendous. If you like Shampoo, Westworld, Puffy Amiyumi or just plain enjoy bouncing around to music then you need this CD.
