If it’s attitude you’re after then you’ve come to the right song. Led by Gemma Banks and her high-rise hair London 5-piece Sister have been getting as much press for their style as their music. Blondie is an obvious reference point and Banks’ bolshie vocal turn is instantly memorable. Bonus points must go to the beautifully rendered music though that creates the sweetest of swirls in the background. I’m always partial to an organ drift and ‘Lovers of Today’ has one that Manzarek himself would have been proud of. This is a neat throwback to the days of punk without the mess that was the uncouth snarl and the buckets of spittle. Sister are currently gigging all over London in support of their debut single ‘Satellite’. KD
