Twin Sister:
In our advanced society lines have been blurred. There is very little pressure to be a mans man, cream of the crop, all american or jack of all trades. One is able to simply slide through being who you are and it’s a real luxury. Sometimes though, in certain situations one’s masculinity is tested. Usually it comes in the form of being able to honestly enjoy something that would down play your manhood, maybe a cute puppy, a tear jerker movie, a relaxing bath, listening to a Cat Power album. All of those circumstances could be perfectly framed with the music of Twin Sister, except your half cut on wine and a pack of smokes in. The music is nice and down tempo but not boring, hazy but sweet. Lead singer Andrea Estella has a voice like milk and honey, and perfection is reached in an almost Nico moan in the song ‘Dry Hump’ (haha). Catching me completely off guard, Twin Sister feels like it must be played through headphones. There are many deeper layers then what comes up straight away, well rehearsed and planned feedback, hums, the clicking of a guitar pick on a string and so very light drumming and bass that is sure to give you goosebumps. Twin Sister is offering out the EP “Vampires With Dreaming Kids” for free right now and I highly recommend you grab yourself the digital download and dream dream dream. I don’t care what anyone says, manliness aside, I love Twin Sister a lot.
