Girls Just Want to Have Fun

The closer September 22nd comes, the more anticipation grows for the official release of Girls' full length debut, simply titled Album.
Each song on the schizophrenic LP sounds more varied and unique than the last. The album's strongest link comes from lead singer Christopher Owens, who struggles to shatter Joe Strummer comparisons.
Throughout the record, the band genre hops all over the place. You have the 50s-inspired "Hellhole Ratrace," the power pop of "Lust for Life," and "Morning Light," which sounds straight from You Made Me Realize era My Bloody Valentine.
It's this distinct stylistic versatility that sets the band apart from their female-centric band name peers (Vivian Girls, Dum Dum Girls, The Girls, Women, et al.)
