duo

A few weeks ago I’ve been contacted by Pierrick from Distile Records, an up and coming Paris/NY label focusing on instrumental/noise/math rock. I listened to one of their bands,SWIMS and right away the amazing Claypoolesque bass-tapping hit me. After listening to most of the label back-catalogue, I’m amazed with the quality of their roster.

As opposed to CocoRosie, The Pierces is a very nice example of being sisters, having a non-mainstream past and an interest in music and yet wear attractive clothes and sing without frightening anyone/make them want to die. The sisters hail from Alabama and have quite an interesting and funny profile on myspace.
