As of late I have been listening the band “Girls”. I heard of them through other reviews calling it one of the best albums of the year. Id say they were right. The album was virtually flawless. Songs like Laura, Hellhole Ratrace were quite true to my own experiences regarding love among other things. Laura was very true. Not anymore but it was. Things have become quite better and will continue to. Sad songs will mean something to people when they’re sad or feeling good. For they can look back at that time and say to themselves “I’ve overcome this experience”. As for their new record, it was quite good. Although, it feel short I feel at the end. I could be wrong though, I might have to listen to it more. In time I might feel there is more to the record and have it be my favorite records of Girls. Christopher Owens grew up in the “Children of God” cult, in the cult he was not allowed to listen to popular music. I feel this has made his music different to what’s being played today, similar to “Kings of Leon”. Kings of Leon has strayed away from independent music and walked into the popular. I truly hope this isn’t the case for Girls. If so, I will cherish what the band has made to date. This is my opinion, and that’s all it is. I look forward to watching their career and seeing them in concert this month in Toronto at the Mod Club.
