Details
Color Your Life is the proper debut release from New York's Twin Sister, following the digital-only Vampires with Dreaming Kids EP from 2008. "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? Start your ambulances, we guarantee by end of the Summer, this lot will be on a major / mindie label>

Masses of blog action, going to be huge:
?Twin Sister is no average pop band. I first saw these guys
opening for Megafaun at the Silent Barn last spring. Since
then, my support for them has been unwavering, my praise
of them hyperbolic to the extreme ... the Weezer of the 21st
century.? ?The Ampeater Review
