Religious Girls – “Open Your Heart To Fantasy”

That hiatus didn’t last long did it? I totally overlooked this Religious Girls record last year, and I noticed that not a whole lot of people on the blogogregatorsphere has even mentioned this California act. This would have been very high on my year end lists had I known about it before a few days ago. So, I figured I’d drop a quick mp3 and direct you to where you can get a digital download on the name your own price model. The sound is somewhere between Au and Blastoids. It’s the true essence of post-rock, deconstructing music and putting it together in an insane sort of way. It’s also the most unique take on, and furthest exploration of, the new brand of psychedelics Animal Collective has ushered in. It’s only 5 tracks clocking in under 28 minutes, but every moment of it is great:
