The San Francisco-based Girls will play the TLA September 20th. The band's previous releases combine a surf pop sensibility with strains of power pop and summery, laid back lyrics; the band's second album, Father, Son, Holy Ghost , drops September 13th on True Panther. Tickets for the show go on sale Friday, July 15th; ticket information can be found here . Below, the video for "Lust For Life" from the band's 2009 debut album.
Girls reviennent étaler leur talent à la face du monde avec un nouvel EP joliment baptisé Broken Dreams Club qui mélange le classicisme 502s avec la dépendance obsession de Felt et ce soupçon de recul sur soi même qui confine, parfois, au génie. Bref un groupe qui fait du Doo-Wop comme John Waters des comédies [...]

Link: http://pitchfork.com/reviews/a lbums/13477-album/ Girls is a relevant indie buzzband who seems to have officially garnered 'critical darling' status after receiving an 8.6 on their hit EP. I think they used to write songs that u could say were 'fuzzy buzzy' but their new gimmick is 'growing up' and 'caring more abt production value.' I think at first ppl thought they were a gimmicky 1-album-wonder buzzband, but now it seems like they are going after 'Alternative Tenure', which means everything they produce is 'highly anticipated', 'highly respected', and the [...]

Last year the google-phobic Girls released one of the year's best debuts with the equally search engine unfriendly title Album . In addition to the fantastic "Hellhole Ratrace", "Ghost Mouth", "Laura", Album also featured the narcotically ringing wish list, plea for love and mission statement that is "Lust For Life", no relation to Iggy's classic of the same name. The above video would have made these guys stars back when MTV had actually had something to do with music. Now American actress C.C. Sheffield has released a throbbing, Gaga-riffic cover that should be filling dancefloors [...]

by yours truly via To be perfectly honest, when I got the email containing Girls ' vocalist and songwriter Christopher Owens ' answers to my questions, I was pretty peeved. I shrugged it off to my weird morning. It was the kind of morning that, whilst gazing at the sunlight streaming through my blinds, everything including light, pulsed in time to my heartbeat. So I left it for later. I read it all back again in the afternoon and still felt quite indignant at the [...]

Girls , para muchos, puede ser una banda más en la escena musical. Y sí, es una banda más, pero que logró colocar su primer Album en lo más alto de las listas de lo mejor de 2009 y eso, no cualquiera. Este próximo jueves, 3 de junio, se presentan en el Lunario del Auditorio Nacional dispuestos a rockear y a hacer muestra de esa actitud única que los caracteriza, acompañados de Furland y Los Fancy Free. 10:1 les recomienda ir y rockear. Todavía hay boletos. ¡Niñas, chicas, muchachas, nenas, chiquillas, allá las vemos!

Too bad the music doesn't match up to the back story.

2009 var et fantastisk musikår med utallige af nye fantastiske, spændende og udfordrende udgivelser. Ingen undskyldninger herfra, jeg har suget til mig af ny musik, og da jeg skulle udforme min liste viste min 2009 short-list at små 90 nye udgivelser har fundet vej ind i musiksamlingen i år. 01. Animal Collective - Merriweather Post Pavilion Året var ikke ret gammelt før Animal Collective satte overlæggeren ualmindeligt højt, det underlige blev til pop og AC fik nærmest et kommercielt gennembrud. Sluttede så lige året af med at smide EPen "Fall Be Kind" med [...]
"Eet" by Regina Spektor Here is my list of thirty songs that dominated my iTunes, the songs that moved me to learn them on guitar, and the songs I will identify with 2009 forever. In no particular order. Though I suppose the top five could be my top five. "Walkabout" by Atlas Sound + guest Noah [...]

Filed under: Video , Songs Retro-indie rockers Girls caused an internet hullaballoo earlier this year when they released a scandalous 'director's cut' of the video for their catchy single 'Lust for Life.' Featuring light-hearted nudity, the clip raised the ire of some conservative-minded critics, mostly due to a scene depicting one male using another's penis as a microphone. While most would consider this act plenty risqué, according to the San Francisco based band, it didn't go far enough. "I don't like that video very much," the [...]

A música que mais gosto dessa simpática banda de São Francisco. Desnecessário dizer que vale também uma conferida no maravilhoso clip, clima bem no estilo The Teenagers e TPOBPAT. Girls - Lust For Life .

Early this year we were so sure we had our year end list all planned out. The Antlers, Animal Collective, Dirty Projectors, and Grizzly Bear had all stood us on our heads with their fantastic albums that had us wooing and cooing with each successive listen. But as the year has worn on there have been new surprises, bands that weren't known of prior to this year, bands that stepped up their game, and bands that came from nowhere to truly wow us with their music. Out of all of this none have sent our pre-ordained year end list into [...]
Wow - what a week we've had here at the Muffin. As you know, Sunday means videos, so without further adieu... Chris Garneau - Fireflies, such a weird fellow that Chris Garneau. Pretty cool homage to the child-like empress at the end there. Darwin Deez - The Spring Dance, this ...
