Not that we suggest skipping around a very well sequenced record, but imagining you’ve already heard Girls‘ “Lust For Life,” “Hellhole Ratrace” and “Morning Light,” just make sure you listen to “Lauren Marie” and then “Curls” into “Darling.” Our current cover stars have released one of the years best albums of simple, loving guitar pop. And if this stream of Album makes it clear that collection of songs deserves more than an minimized browser window open to enjoy, we’re giving away a signed copy of the vinyl LP along with a pair of tickets to the Girls show of your choice on their upcoming US tour to two lucky people. Dates are after the jump. Leave your favorite song from Album in the comments and register with your real email address so we can find you.

are you kidding me? HELLHOLE RATRACE might be played out already, but it’s still the best song on this album and probably most other albums of 2009!

Fantastic Album, no the best of the year, but high marks!
Summertime on repeat. Captured the lazy hazy late summer in NYC this year.

“Hellhole Ratrace”
Saw their show at Great American Music Hall and it was sweeeeeet.

I think I have to say Lust For Life.
But they’re all really great.
Everyone’s about to be way into Girls.
September 14th, 2009 at 12:26 pm
I LOVE GIRLS!
I have been hooked since I first heard Hellhole Ratrace. My favorite song keeps changing with each 7″ and now with the full album so many great songs!
I think today my favorite song is Laura.
September 14th, 2009 at 12:35 pm
“Ghostmouth” is my fave right now…
September 14th, 2009 at 12:37 pm
Laura! It reminds me of something like…making chocolate chip pancakes and cleaning up the kitchen with your best friend the morning after a hyped up party that just went downhill..
