Girls - Album (2009) [True Panther] // Grade: C

I’m really looking forward to the eventual blood feud that will ensue between Girls and The Drums for who will be the official soundtrack to the Spring 2010 A.P.C. catalog. I can’t wait ’til it comes in the mail and I sit down with both of their albums and watch the fur fly as I crown a king of Madras! Hopefully whoever loses will still be able to grant me a great khaki shopping soundtrack for a Sunday at J. Crew.

P.S. Any TV executives reading this… “Laura” would make an excellent theme song to whatever eventual Hipster based sitcom (or Dramady) you’ll be looking to develop in the next year or two. Picture it… Zooey Deschanel as Laura and her wild adventures in Tha ‘Burg.

P.P.S. I really liked that guitar lick in “Morning Light” a whole lot more when it was originally part of “Mote”. But that’s just me.
