GIRLS
album

Release Date: 28/09/2009

just as the velvets crackle with new york electricity and smiths' songs come soaked in manchester drizzle, so the music of girls captures the stoned and sun-baked outlook of life in san francisco. taking the classic california pop template perfected by brian wilson and applying a woozy, lo-fi makeover, girls make music that's trapped in a permanent adolescence, one where everyday is designed to be spent getting stoned, lazing in the park and obsessing over love. you'll detect 50's surf-pop, 60's psychedelia and 80's hardcore at play here, not to mention the more modern west coast sounds of groups like the tyde. but most of all, you'll hear a musical distillation of the frazzled, san francisco lifestyle.
