Sister - Stand Up Forward March (2016) FLAC

Swedish rockers Sister blend hedonistic, classic Sunset Strip metal with churlish, horror-infused glam-punk, resulting in a ruckus that falls somewhere between L.A. Guns, White Zombie, and the Misfits. Formed in 2006, the Stockholm-based quartet, which consists of Jamie (vocals), Tim (guitar), Rikki (bass), and Cari (drums), joined the ranks of the burgeoning New Wave of Swedish Sleaze Metal (Hardcore Superstar, Nasty Idol, Crashdiet, Vains of Jenna) with their 2009 debut EP Deadboys Making Noise. Not long after, the band inked a deal with Metal Blade and issued their debut long-player, 2011's well-received Hated. The group's sophomore full-length outing, Disguised Vultures, followed in early 2014. ~ James Christopher Monger
