Women is the debut studio album by Calgary band Women, recorded by fellow Calgary-native Chad VanGaalen.[1][2] It was released in 2008 on VanGaalen's Flemish Eye record label in Canada, and on Jagjaguwar in the US. The song "Sag Harbor Bridge" is a direct reference to the suicide of the artist Ray Johnson, like "Locust Valley" and "Venice Lockjaw" on Women's second album of 2010, Public Strain.
Women was recorded by Polaris Music Prize-nominated Chad VanGaalen, in "[VanGaalen's] basement, an outdoor culvert and a crawlspace."[3] It was recorded using boom boxes and tape machines, contributing to its lo-fi sound.[3]
