Russian Girlfriends Share New Video “Coke” + Announce New Album “In The Parlance Of Our Times”

Russian Girlfriends have just announced their new album In The Parlance Of Our Times, set to be released June 21st by A-F Records. In conjunction with the announcement, the band is releasing a music video for their quick-hitting opening track “Coke,” a snarky takedown of tough-guy “bro culture” in punk. Pre-orders for In The Parlance Of Our Times are available now via A-F Records.

In The Parlance Of Our Times was recorded with the help of All-American Rejects’ guitarist Mike Kennerty who recorded the drum tracks at his home studio in Oklahoma. The rest of recording took place at Denver’s Black in Bluhm, and Albuquerque’s Empty House Studio.

The new record expands on their established style, mixing the best elements of pop and rock ‘n’ roll with the ferocity and angst of hardcore, and punk rock. The record serves as a follow up to their debut LP “All Around,” which the band self-released in 2015 and later reissued through Orange Whip Records and Gunner Records (Europe).

The group has quickly won fans near and far as they have embarked on seven tours across the U.S., Canada, and Europe, sharing the stage with notable punk acts like Red City Radio, Teenage Bottlerocket, Flatfoot 56, The Bombpops, BIG UPS, and PEARS.

The original lineup formed in 2014, with Adam Hooks as lead vocalist, Ian Jarrell (formerly of Koffin Kats) and Colin Dowell (Glitter Dick) on guitar, Jeremy Keith on bass, and Sasha Horn (Heathen, Novembers Doom, Forbidden and Exhorder) as the band’s drummer.
