The Pierces are back together

[FetchFugly]

So after an album from Allison and some very stop-start solo releases from Cat, they are happily reunited. There's been a reworking of Secret, an online concert and now a new song:



It sounds like they have plans to do more, though nothing firmed up yet.

Secret Sisters found SHAKING AND CRYING

 

[lolly]

I'd completely forgotten all about them. Right, that's the listening until bed calls sorted.

i've been having such a you and i late summer that it's borderline psychic they've come out with new stuff just this very moment.
when is that record being reissued?

anyway, the new one. i like it. i like how the motherfucking line cuts through the campfire.

here's my the americana pop say lou lou, i mean, pierces top 10

01 you'll be mine - always and forever
02 it will not be forgotten
03 we are stars
04 space and time
05 love you more
06 kings
07 glorious
08 i put your records on
09 the devil is a lonely night
10 drag you down

yes, i went there and i'd go there again.

but there was too much cheese on the follow up to you and i.

Funny you make the comparison to Say Lou Lou, I was watching a video of them and they were talking about how it is for them as independent artists, and I thought hippy Aly and AJ.

Hard to argue with that top three.

I was listening to Creation only this morning. It is hurt by being a bit bloated, whereas You and I is a tight 11 tracker. Lose five of the weaker tracks and it stacks up much better, though only Kings touches the highest highs of the previous album. I do love the title track and The Devil is a Lonely Night too though, and Honest Man is the best Allison song on there.

i have been listening to you and i so much these past couple of weeks, if i didn't know any of it by heart, i do now.

this time around they often remind me of abba. it's the melodies and the harmonies and i can't seem to tire of any of it. definitely one of my favourite albums ever.
