4. 4th & wall cd
Named after the band's studio in the heart of downtown LA. A departure from the more atmospheric first cd. Lost on the public due to the horrible label it was released on (10.23.07). This is the band's Paul's Boutique.
"artfully layered dream pop" --L.A. Times
"Sophia plays like an encapsulation of the 70s' most decadent rock moments heard through a smog of innocent sincerity and Valium, and it's actually pretty great." --Pitchfork
"Like West Indian Girl's California home, the band's music is an exhilarating experience, and a fabulous place to lose one's self." --All Music
"Their just-released sophomore LP, 4th & Wall is logically rife with head-in-the-clouds moments, as trebly lead-guitar licks, often coded in waves of delay, trickle overtop numerous layers of keyboard tracks." --REMIX Magazine
"In contrast to the psychedelic swirls of the sunshine-y and hallucinogenic breezy numbers are the darker edges and gloomy themes of “Rise From The Dead,” an indicator of the direction the group is veering towards." --Venice Magazine
"The record places West Indian Girl squarely in the grand L.A. pop tradition that starts with Phil Spector, Brian Wilson and Lou Adler (the Mamas & the Papas) and threads all the way through the city’s musical history, surfacing in more synth-heavy garb in WIG precursors like Jellyfish and the Rentals." --HARP
"West Indian Girl lands far from guitar-centrism; look no further than the prog-techno trickery of "Lost Children" for proof." --Miami New Times
