week five
battles
mirrored
it's thom's birthday, and since he can't give himself BIG SHOUTS because he basically writes everything on this bl0g he's gonna give you all a little piece on a rlly good album.
if you've played little big planet you'll already know atlas, but trust, the rest of this record is just as good. quirky, loopy and bouncy. battles are basically a brilliant band and this we like all their albums, so you should check them all out too.

here, here, here and here
attempting to write some new tunes for GIRLS NIGHT II in december is starting to lead somewhere...
we spent a while writing a song that ended up being trash, so now we're trying a different tack. we had a little jam on thursday and yesterday thom demoed it (that's an exclusive by the way, the rest of the band don't even know that yet). in his personal opinion, it's gonna be a pretty swell little number.
anyway, fringegirls are excited as always, and once we get this song written (and sort out a few other surprises for the show), everything is gonna be good good good!
you can still get tickets from here, here or here by the way.
and you can still buy treeman from here, if you want

week four
flying lotus
pattern + grid world
we love a bit of flylo over here at frxnchgirls, and this EP from 2010 is in our humble opinion his best release. it may only be short but it packs one fuck of a punch. basically you need to hear it.
best trax - physics for everyone; clay; kill your co workers

week three
the flaming lips
the terror
a slightly belated good friday this week, but you probably didn't notice anyway.
this is an album that was discovered quite late on by us, but it's nonetheless a very underrated psych record. perfect for those of you who like your psychedelia to be sp00ky.
best trax - look... the sun is rising; butterfly, how long it takes to die; sun blows up today

recording
as if treeman wasn't enough for you (which, by its sales record, seems to be the case), we've been recording again.
here's a short documentary giving you the lowdown on all the exciting things we did yesterday.

this week we've an album which was so exclusive that it was never even officially released. the only version that exists is a low-fi unmastered leaked one, but we still adore it. just listen to str8 outta mumbai and you'll know exactly what we mean. also he samples batman punches and harry potter films which is pretty damn cool.

when a fire starts to burn
there are three websites you should all be on the lookout on, in preparation for our single dropping on saturday.
first, our bandcamp page, because this is where you'll actually be able to buy the song (you don't have to if you don't want to but, y'know, man's gotta eat)
https://frenchgirlsssss.bandcamp.com
second is our youtube channel (that's right, we have one), because when treeman is released we're gonna be putting up a lyric vidya there so y'all can actually figure out that the fuck ben is singing about
https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCh2GaJh8yf_th-RkB8PAh0w
third is our facebook page, because after you've showed all your friends and family our new single and they inevitably love it, as well as buying it so we can get to number one they can give us a cheeky like so we can finally crack that 500 barrier and feel of some worth
https://www.facebook.com/frenchgirlsssss
also on an unrelated note, tomorrow we're gonna post another blog about an album we love, and this week's is a MAJOR goodie. recommended.
okay that's all drive safe xox

good friday - 1/10/15
week one
lcd soundsystem
sound of silver
week one, and we start with this. in one sentence, it's a super fun bouncy dance-indie record that never once dips in quality.
best trax - all my friends; someone great; watch the tapes
