One of the most talked about new bands in the US, Girls are a duo centred around the pure and powerful songwriting of Christopher Owens and the ethereal, haunting production of Chet JR White.
Girls will release their debut album, titled Album, on September 21 on Fantasytrashcan / Turnstile.
Girls formed at the start of 2008 and recorded Album in a variety of bedrooms and rehearsal rooms across their adopted hometown of San Francisco.
It features twelve tracks including their forthcoming debut UK single 'Hellhole Ratrace' which is set for release on July 13 on 10" vinyl only. The single, described by NME as "seven minutes of slacker-stoner-psych majesty" is also accompanied by a stunning Aaron Brown-directed video.
It showcases a more epic side to Girls' sound, in contrast to some of the band's more succinct, west coast-sun-kissed moments (check out album tracks 'Lust For Life' and 'Goddamned' on the band’s myspace – www.myspace.com/girlssanfran)
