Last year, the wounded, starry-eyed San Francisco indie-pop group Girls released their debut album Album and made our year-end top 10. Before this year is up, they'll follow Album with a brand new EP. Broken Dreams Club is out November 22 on True Panther.
Broken Dreams Club includes six songs and lasts 30 minutes. JR White, Girls' instrumental guru, recorded it at the band's own home studio. And according to the music-selling site Interpunk, where you can now pre-order the EP, Broken Dreams Club features "a more massive, lusher sound with horns, pedal steel and psychedelic effects dappled throughout." Listen to the first mp3 from the EP, "Heartbreak", for yourself at the True Panther blog.

The Away Ep was a collection of our first songs that were ever recorded which was to be released by Unexplainable Recordings somewhere between 2007 and 2008. The Away EP is:
01. Gigi
02. It's not over till we're dead
03. I can't see it here
04. L'astrologue
In addition here are some demos and tracks from 2007-2009 that never found a home.

The Bilinda Butchers "HEAVEN" is a soundtrack set to the diary by Nakajima Ume, a young woman who lived in Japan from 1836 to 1864. The diary's entries catalog her catastrophic marriage to a cruel nobleman, and her later introduction to a young, idealistic poet whose expressions of sympathy inspire her to escape from her unfortunate circumstances. When her friendship with the poet is discovered, Ume is sent away to a distant village, where she falls into a deep depression and eventually learns of the poet’s death. Though the news of the poet’s death initially disturbs Ume, she soon discovers within herself a new sense of clarity and motivation. Her diary ends with a final pronouncement: she will drown herself in order to reunite with her fallen lover.
