WONGIE DISCOVERY: girls - lust for life / laura / hellhole ratrace

from the matador records site:
"Built on the powerful songwriting of Christopher Owens and the ethereal production of Chet “JR” White, Girls recorded 'Album' in a variety of bedrooms and rehearsal studios in their adopted hometown, San Francisco. The resulting 12 tracks are the perfect San Francisco summer record, evoking a narcotic, sunny afternoon in Dolores Park, yet promising the eventual hangover of summer’s departure. Album is a redemptive song-cycle about the various characters and desires that color Christopher Owens’s life. Described by the band as “honest, loose, ethereal, obnoxious and perfect,” it is a sincere tribute to the majesty of great pop music and the healing power of rock and roll."


girls - lust for life
[how absolutely perfect is this song? just makes you want to bop around all day in the best mood]


girls - laura
[not as instant as the previous song, but when the 'bop bop bop's' happen during the bridge, it feels like all is right in the world. a mighty feat if you ask me.]


girls - hellhole ratrace
[oh this is really really good. yep... i'm a fan now]
