Say, do you like pop music? Well so do San Francisco's Girls. And on their sophomore effort, they've decided to take every well known pop song style of the last fifty years and somehow condensed it into an album. It almost feels like some sort of Girl Talk mix at times they way the songs jump around, except that these are all original compositions. These aren't the simple tracks from the band's debut, these songs go in a thousand different directions and sound BIG - soaring orchestration and Pink Floyd-style back-up singers big. I'm honestly sonewhat at a loss as to what to write about this band - in the span of less than an hour they manage to sound like just about every major pop act you've ever listened to. What I do know is the opening track "Honey Bunny" is one of the catchiest songs of the year, and worth the price of admission alone.
