Just found out yesterday through their facebook page. I'm very excited since Oleg is one of my favorite surf guitarists  I'm glad he's releasing new material so soon after the Church of Reverb album.
Still listening to the album, sounds cool, but I need some time to digest it. Loving the weird and purposely lame cover art and title haha!
The album is available for purchase here: https://geo.itunes.apple.com/de/album/the-incredible-crocotiger/id998868807?uo=6
For the time being I haven't seen anything about release in a physical medium.

I dug around a bit. Saw that Amazon says there's a CD coming out in August. And then Raucous Records seems to have it available to order http://www.raucousrecords.com/surf-instrumental-cds/messer-chups-incredible-crocotiger-cd.html

Same here, I bought a copy on Italy and haven't had time to load it into the computer to listen to it.
Is this why CD sales are declining? They seem so much effort to actually listen to the music.
Really enjoyed seeing them play live.

Got it in Livorno too, with a bunch of other CD's and vinyl. But this one is in my player most of the time. Really love it. The sound is a bit wider than the previous ones, standing bass, slide guitar, etc. Some songs have a bit more rockabilly vibe, wich I like alot.
The production is top notch, definitly a classic to be

Weird and slightly naff album cover (compared to their earlier work) but a very classy album. Great tunes and a really nice sound. I'm loving the rockabilly pickin' on Jokermobile.
For those intrigued by the band name and what it means - according to the man himself, "Messer" means "life" or "the joy of life" (he didn't seem 100% sure of the English translation when I drunkenly quizzed him at Surfer Joe). He then went on to say something like "to suck the joy of life". My wife interpreted all this as simply "Life Sucks". Maybe someone else can shed some light on this...

From what I have read Messer Chups translates as Lollipop Knife!

It is entirely possible that I misheard "knife" for "life", Chinese whispers style...
