Parenthetical Girls - A Song for Ellie Greenwich Entanglements is one of those albums I've come to adore so much, that I really don't mind repeating myself . It's amazing. It conjures up all the discomforts and winces that help to make up the best relationships, as well as the most doomed, and shows there is much to love in these details too. It's not always easy listening, but it's always beautiful,...
Parenthetical Girls "A Song For Ellie Greenwich" - Aside from the hollow, airy silence at the core of the arrangement, the vocals are the calmest element in this composition. Suitably, they are written with some perspective on the past, whereas the rest of the music taps into the fraught emotions that the singer only now understands in hindsight. I'm especially fond of the instrumental bridge, which...
Parenthetical Girls - A Song for Ellie Greenwich When Parenthetical Girls sing about love, they don't sing about the kind of love that tells you a heart is a soft red spade-shaped thing. They sing like it's a lump of twitching muscle, involuntarily pulsing and pushing affections around like it does blood. This band makes everything sound beautifully imperfect. They play piano that sounds shaky and...

Ah man, do I have to blog today? I don’t wanna. I’m sure I can come up with something to write, but I don’t wanna. Perhaps I would be a bit more motivated if all you people who are reading would comment, already. Just an idea. After the past two days of non-existent frog hats and butt-sniffing requests, [...]
"Lushly orchestrated" is how the early press materials for Parenthetical Girls ' upcoming Entanglements , their first record for Tomlab. And this song from the album certainly bears that out, filled with piano, horns, woodwinds, clattering production, and some kind of fake strings. Despite all the instrumentation, it still manages some space, and it sounds in its way like a slightly askew version...
