MY THOUGHTS ON RUSSIAN GIRLFRIENDS:
Russian Girlfriends is a New Mexico band that got it's start back in 2014. The band's debut full length album dropped in 2015, titled "All Around". The band's sound caught the ears of Anti-Flag who signed the band to their label, A-F Records for the release of their sophomore album, 2019's "In The Parlance Of Our Times". After this release, lead vocalist Adam Hooks would leave the band leaving vocal duties to guitarist Ian Jarrell. Jarrell's first album on vocals would be the 2022 self-titled release, "Russian Girlfriends". Russian Girlfriends' sound is rooted in punk rock and some metal. I loved Adam Hooks' vocals and songwriting on the band's first two albums so that is a tough loss for the band losing him as their vocalist. Ian Jarrell does fill in admirably, but Hooks really made the band stand out. It's amazing these guys have been around for 10 years already! I kinda consider them a new band still! Time flies right? Well, these guys are definitely worth checking out, for sure!
