Les Agamemnonz - "Amateurs" LP (Yellow Vinyl) (Hi-Tide)
In the last few years, Les Agamemnonz have established themselves with a sound that is completely fresh, as though reinventing the surf genre. But, not in a modern way. While many in Surf pride themselves on taking the music where it might have gone, Les Ags have found a space where it feels as though they could have actually influenced the birth of surf. What if the teenage testosterone that propelled the energy for early surf was provided by hop-headed jazzers, pushing the beat with sophisticated musical knowledge as influences? Amateurs, the new album from France’s Les Agamemnonz is mind blowing, and brims with the joy of life.
