We first heard Twin Sister mid last year when they were giving away free download copies of their debut EP Vampires With Dreaming Kids. Then we were lucky enough to see them at SXSW where they played one night just before our very own Songs.
Color Your Life is the proper debut physical release from New York's Twin Sister. "The Other Side of Your Face" opens with a whip of grey wind and a throbbing hum. Drums count off and shimmering guitar chords gently descend; vocalist Andrea Estella's voice comes in and things hush up real quick. Oh man, she's basically whispering right in your ear, red lipstick and everything. Jesus. She's gone again just as quickly, and the music rises up, up, up, building layer after layer. "Lady Daydream" introduces herself with Eric Cardona's guitar glimmer, the melody beckoning cool and soft and sure before "Milk and Honey" initiates total pandemonium - all of a sudden it's a packed house-party in the clouds. "All Around and Away We Go" continues with Gabe D'Amico's insistent bass lines bouncing along orange-lava synths and barking vocals - pure uninhibited bliss. By now it's dark outside, and the silver heavens reflect down on "Galaxy Plateau." Udbhav Gupta's keys and drum machines come into bright focus and "Phenomenons" scores the tranquil descent into the landscape of a pink morning sky. Was it all a dream?
In stores August 20th.

Over two years in the making Surf City are set to release their debut long player Kudos this upcoming September.
Updating the psych haze of the Spacemen 3 with the circular drone of Animal Collective and the off kilter melodies of The Clean with the drive of Interpol, Surf City is the perfect mix of everything you loved about the early 80's New Zealand jangle and the 60's blur of Velvets and Zombies with the shapeshifting songwriting of today. This is an album indie guitar pop fans have been dying since the band first emerged on the scene with their EP three years ago.
To support the album release the band are returning to our shores playing four shows in Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane.
