US Girls is the alter ego of American-Canadian artist Meg Remy, who has released a series of albums on all kinds of small labels since 2008. Since the well-received Half Free (2015) was released on the famous , Remy has taken things a lot more seriously. For example, she took no less than three years for successor A Poem Unlimited - and you can hear that. Her characteristic, girlish voice is still

The list of employees reads almost like the credits of a film: in addition to Remy's backing band The Cosmic Range (including her husband / guitarist Maximilian Turnbull), it has no less than 15 guest musicians, including singer / keyboardist is the best known. A Poem Unlimited therefore sounds busy, full and experimental, but at the same time playful and poppy. A bit like can do, although she usually knows how to make better songs than US Girls does here.
