Chimpos are a group of musicians who are "friends who grew up in Ocean Beach in the 70s," and they have released their second album, A Horse Splashes. The new disc follows in the steps of the groups 2018 Flung Like a Horse, and it is another collection of 11 good-time rockers that dont take themselves too seriously, with arrangements best described as bouncing from well-executed studio goof tracks to deep dives into alternative rock, garage style. The musicianship is uniformly excellent, as these are seasoned pros with decades of experience; the core band features founders Greg Hildebrand (guitars, vocals), Thomas Yearsley (bass), Matt Clowminzer (lead guitar), and David Friendly (drums). These players are only part of the story, though, as their website identifies 13 musicians, and most put in appearances on the album.
