Group Tightener have been responsible for some great US indie singles over the last year or so and here's another one from their vaults. It's by the Fungi Girls. When the male vocals started I was a bit confused but that went pretty quickly when I realised they more than likely weren't girls and were actually boys. They've had singles out on Hozac amongst others and this sounds pretty sweet on 1st listen. Lo-fi slacker-ish indie pop with a surf feel. It's quite a sparse tune all in all, mainly consisting of a simple sounding beat, some vocals and a bit of guitar and that's about it. It builds to a sweet chorus with lots of "woo-woos" abound and it'll stick in your head. Mint!

Fungi Girls are three high school kids from Texas. They've released records on Hozac, Play Pinball and Psychic Lunch. For their Group Tightener release, the trio recorded twin bursts of catchy garage-psych that will force its way into your brain and probably chill there for months and months. Throw it in the jukebox and drop the quarter in...over and over. Limited to 500.
