  Women Announce US Fall Tour
  Dates With Liars &
dd/mm/yyyy / To Play Pop Montreal Festival
Sophomore LP "Public Strain" On Jagjaguwar September 28th

The boys are back. Women have just announced their US Fall tour dates and will bringing their electrifying live show to audiences across North America, including dates with Liars and dd/mm/yyyy, and an appearance at Pop Montreal.

With their much anticipated sophomore release "Public Strain" (out September 28 in the US) already receiving rave reviews, this is a band not to be ignored.

If you haven't seen Women live yet, be prepared to be consumed by layers of gritty – yet somehow lush – guitar sound punctuated by bursts of incandescent 60's pop melody – in short, one of the most intensely satisfying indie rock performances on the road right now.

In other news... Online pre-orders are now available for the much anticipated new album by Women: Public Strain at www.Jagjaguwar.com. Those who are champing at the bit to get the album will be excited to hear that both LP and CD pre-orders will be delivered with a bonus 7” featuring two exclusive non-album tracks - “Grey Skies” and “Service Animal”, not available anywhere else.

"Women tread the line between discord and delight with deceptive style."
- Mojo, 4/5 Stars

"We already knew that Women could aim for the head but the likes of 'Penal Colony''s melancholy choral balladry and 'Venice Lockjaw''s sweet nostalgic lullaby prove that they can now bury their way down into the heart just as well."
- NME, 8/10

"Strange drones, guitars ring with strange, cryptic tunings, and songs are melded together with passages of misty, shifty ambience" - Uncut

"Women might combine all that I love about a band"- NPR (Carrie Brownstein)

".... straddles the 1960s' divide between the Warhol crowd's speed-addled New York cynicism and the echoes of psychedelic San Francisco that bubbled up across the pond in the fey, catchy pop of UK groups like the Zombies."
- Pitchfork


"...it’s hard to think of any album since Kid A that has created such a completely unique sound; where each song seems so perfectly-crafted for its place on the record that it really couldn’t exist anywhere else."
- Gold Flake Paint


"One of the year's most rewarding listens is born."
- The Skinny, 4/5 Stars
