Mirror Lady : Shapes (Spiderwoman)

Documenting dangers in the female of the species (“In nothin’ but your t-shirt/ She holds you to the wall / And wraps her web ‘till you can’t move at all”), Mirror Lady’s sweet, percussive-based blast of relationship advice is like a breath of fresh air. There’s nothing false or cynical about this style of guitar pop - you try and pick holes but all you’re left with is the original. Think Vampire Weekend without the divisive sound. Pomegranates with more of an ability to get to the point. Short-lived, fast-moving and flooring. Just the kind we like.
