It’s time for some more subtle psychedelia from San Francisco’s Girls. “Hellhole Ratrace” sounds like a gentle romp through a giant field of poppies à la Wizard of Oz, and seriously what’s better than rolling around in a haze of opiates in a crazy dreamworld? The resounding lyric of “I don’t want to cry my whole life through/I want to do some laughing too” makes Girls’ shoegaze revelry even more poignant. Check out “Hellhole Ratrace” and their other single “Lust for Life” below.

Sounds like: The Verve, Donovan, Brian Wilson, Slowdive
