Girls’ latest video for “My Ma” is a touching look at an older woman’s reflection on her younger self.

Listen to Girls‘ new song “Lawrence” below. This year has seen some stellar album releases by already-established artists, most notably by St. Vincent (a personal favourite of mine), Feist, M83, Bon Iver, and of course San Francisco’s Girls with “Father, Son, Holy Ghost”. A couple of days ago Girls announced that they’d be releasing a one-off [...]

Buy the album: Amazon | iTunes | True Panther Records There are a lot of interesting stories to tell about Girls‘ frontman Christopher Owens, but nobody tells it better than he does. He recounts his history and bares his soul regularly in interviews and on his charming, open twitter account, but nowhere does the same [...]

We’re less than a month away from San Francisco’s Girls and their latest album “Father, Son, Holy Ghost” and even though the album leaked a week or so ago thanks to some fuckwit Swedish journalist, for the most part it’s stayed out of blogs and sites. The first track we heard was “Vomit” and I don’t [...]

Premiered on Seattle’s KEXP this morning was the first new music from Girls‘ upcoming second album “Father, Son, Holy Ghost”, out on September 13th via True Panther. There are people who are huge fans of their debut album “Album”, some people who are only fans of their EP, but reaction after this song first aired [...]

It’s been a hot three minutes since we last heard from Dominant Legs, the side project of Girls’ guitarist Ryan Lynch. Almost a year ago to the second, they released their debut EP “Young At Love And Life”, a shimmering little spectacle of infectious Indie-Pop jams, like Washed Out covering The Bangles with Belle And [...]

Photo: PJ Sykes I was intrigued by Lubec because they recorded their debut EP on a tobacco farm. Now, I don’t know about you, but I find that to be pretty freaking awesome. Even more awesome, though, are the tunes found on the EP. Lubec’s music is, according to them, what would be considered as [...]

Smith Westerns, what with your hairy and grizzled version of modern Glam-Rock, what are we supposed to do with you? Just eat you up in copious amounts until we’re throwing up guns and paint and glitter and bits of wood?  Damn right!  If their debut self-titled album came out in 2010 it would’ve been in [...]

I guess this must be a day in the life of Smith Westerns. I mean, I kinda had an idea that from dawn until dusk they chopped down trees, carried rifles around fields, consumed copious amounts of fast food, slushies, and bright green beverages anyway, but I was NOT aware of their addiction to buying [...]

When Smith Westerns released their debut album back in the middle of 2009 they were then called The Smith Westerns, but have since dropped the “The”. I remember reading a tweet by them a few months back about dropping it, but I can’t remember their reasoning for doing so, however if it was for something [...]

Thankfully this new song from Girls isn’t from an EP called “EP” or something equally as original, like their debut album “Album” was. That album though was fan-fucking-tastic, despite the shitty name, so maybe this new EP they’re releasing will be shite since it has a more original name; “Broken Dreams Club”.  However if the [...]

Photography by me. “Rest is not idleness, and to lie sometimes on the grass on a summer day listening to the murmur of water, or watching the clouds float across the sky, is hardly a waste of time.” – John Lubbock I’ve been toying with the idea of putting together a mixtape for a while [...]
