Girls released their debut album late last year and it earned a lot of praise from a lot of people (including me). While we all eagerly await Album #2, Girls has whet our appetite with this 6-song EP entitled Broken Dreams Club. You can tell immediately from the similar album cover that it won't be deviating far from its predecessor.
While there are certainly some similarities, this is a great step forward. You can sense a different production value about it. Much more instrumentation on these tracks -- a wider array of sounds and textures. Lead singer Christopher Owens sounds more confident as a musician and songwriter, while still crafting lyrics that charmingly lack confidence. This small glimpse shows that Girls is on the right path and it certainly raises the bar for what their second full-length could accomplish.
Must hear: Heartbreaker
