Fresh Track: Girls Names “The New Life”

Back in June, I featured Belfast’s Girls Names’ most recent single “A Troubled See” as a track worth your attention.  Late last week, the group released another single entitled “The New Life” which officially pushes their next album into my own personal “most anticipated” category.  Clocking in at 7:35, the single is a sprawling cacophony of reverb and dreary vocals to go along with a mesmerizing beat.  But despite its length and that description, there is plenty of great things going on here that are sure to translate even more into a live set.  Hopefully a lengthy tour including stops in the Midwest is in the works after the follow up to 2011’s Dead To Me is officially released.  You can preorder the 12” featuring this track and a J D Twitch Optimo remix from Slumberland Records.  Cheers and enjoy friends.
