Electric Sister creates shockwaves with new album, 'The Lost Art of Rock and Roll'


Brylee Plyshevsky

Hot on the heels (or should that be behind the back burner) of the return of glam rock come Electric Sister, the formidable five piece hailing from the shiny shores of San Francisco but sharing equal time in Oakland.

Entitled The Lost Art of Rock and Roll, Electric Sister attempts to revive what they claim to be "lost" by bellowing into its body with melodic screams, smashing its brain with heavy percussion and blasting its ears with massive riffs. Title and standout track, "The Lost Art of Rock n Roll," is enough to make ears bleed in the way only the best rock can make them and contains enough power chords to fill an auditorium – the only place this music should be experienced.

From track 7, "Rock Is Religion," comes possibly the most poetic line of the album - “I need an angel as fucked up as I am,” but that’s okay because no one listens to this kind of rock for the words.

Put on the hair gel, spandex and studded jacket, slam this on the stereo and you have the makings of a great Friday night.
