Girls Set to Release Sophomore Album "Father, Son, Holy Ghost"

Photo by Sandy Kim

One of the most highly regarded and consistently great bands of the past few years would have to be San Francisco's Girls. Their debut, Album, was a strong introductory statement that lead many to place it on year-end lists back in 2009. The band only matured into something greater with the follow-up, last year's fantastic Broken Dreams Club EP -- one of my favorite releases of the past 12 months. Now, Girls are set to release their sophomore album entitled Father, Son, Holy Ghost on September 13th via True Panther Sounds. Scope the album's tracklist and cover art, as well as the band's upcoming tour dates, below.

4) Saying I Love You
