Gigwise - Live Review - 04/26/06

Saturday 22/04/06 Be Your Own Pet, The Rogers Sisters, Cake Bake Betty @ The Leadmill, Sheffi

The hypnotic bass and drums of The Rogers Sisters opener ‘Freight Train’ lulls the audience into acid-tinged visions of deserts, generators and all night parties before slamming them against the wall with a tsunami of guitars strangled to sound like a thousand car alarms. Co-vocalist and bassist Miyuki ostensibly unaffected by the emascalating impact of being in a band with ‘Sisters’ in the title, plays hard, his rock’noll yelp, seething and celebratory in the same breath. T’other dirgy vocalist and guitarist Jennifer provides an unusual counterpoint, looking and sounding more Seattle `94 that Brooklyn `06.
