Army Girls are a Toronto based two piece formed by Andy Smith and Carmen Elle last year, the drums-and-guitar duo have recently released their debut EP 'Close to the Bone', it's a great name to describe their lo-fi garage sound, a fiery intensity runs throughout the five track EP which makes for an immensely pleasurable listen.
Stand-out "The Power" is an ideal starting point, the (once more) perfectly titled track sees heavy, rumbling drums, raw guitar and incredible vocals (her range is staggering) combine to pack quite a punch.
Similarly "Always" carries its simple melody with a youthful energy that's immediate and satisfying while on "Here It Comes" Carmen's deliciously rich vocals really shine, fuzzed up guitar and a gentler beat make for more gorgeousness - a short and succinct intro to a band who we could be hearing a lot more of.
A limited edition CD is available here or digitally on bandcamp.
