This intelligent and veteran New York City guitar band takes an especially fast and tight turn on their fifth full-length studio release. Just take a listen to the anthemic "Let's Get Out of Here," complete with angular guitar riffs and a pounding bass.

Portland's Parenthetical Girls will be releasing their next LP Privilege in the form of five seperate 12" vinyl EPs illustrated by talented Swede Jenny Mörtsell. Each 12" is limited to a run of 500. Check out the dance-floor-ready, synth-blazing single "Young Throats."
