You NEED to listen to: Sisters!
:: September 24, 2010 :: by Jess Rehac
Hailing from Brooklyn, Sisters has been on the music scene since early 2006. Only two people make up the whole band, with Aaron Pfannebecker on the guitar and vocals and Matt Conboy picking up the drums and keyboard, but they make enough sound and have enough energy to not need anyone else.
With their newest album, Ghost Fits, Sisters shows off their signature sounds: distorted guitar solos, catchy keyboard melodies, hard-hitting drums and vocals that never sound the same in two different songs. Sisters has been compared to the likes of Sonic Youth and Pavement, incorporating as many different styles and genres of music into their work as they can while still making it sound good. Everything Sisters play is an explosion of noise and energy, and they weren’t far off when they told listeners on their myspace page that their sound could be compared to that of a firecracker.
