Mujeres!


One of the side effects of being obsessed with Pitchfork Media is that I analyze music way too much. It has become, on occasion, super hard to take music at face value. Maybe it's for that very reason that Mujeres’ self titled debut, out now via Rough Trade, has been playing on repeat, both in my head and on my speakers…there ain’t much to think about! The Barcelona-based garage rockers have certainly taken quite a few pages out of the Black Lips’ playbook (hopefully excluding inclinations to urinate on each other) with very, very positive results. Standout tracks “Blood Meridian” “Wanna Boom” and “Oh My!” are full of snarky guitar lines, raucous drums and lyrics that don’t really add up to much. For these broiling summer months, what could be better?
