Marc Bolan much? The Smith Westerns do, and on this, their 2009 s/t debut, the Rabbit Fighter vibe is immediate – something like a pack of teenagers locked in a humid garage with a stack of warped T. Rex and Gary Glitter vinyl; well that, and a penchant for love songs, a little hocus pocus and a 4-track. The group dropped another non-album track (“Imagine, Pt. 3″) last week, on myspace, that quickly made the rounds.
