The Other Girls by Vivian Girls.
It bugs me how the dumb Pitchfork reviewer was really nasty about the guitar playing on this track - I think it sounds really nice. Maybe the VGs should call up Neil Young and they can go egg the guy's house or something. Damn muso.
Anyway, don't believe the un-hype; even I was all prepared to be totally unexcited by this new Vivian Girls record, but y'know what? It's a really, really good listen - a far more interesting and enjoyable buncha songs than a lot of people might have anticipated. Give it a chance, before you go writing 'em off as the year-before-last's rudderless hype casualties or whatever.
