Two Sick Sisters

Today's tunes come from the early '90's. The distinct wonder of the Pale Saints wasn't the pretty vocals or the polished guitars, that often lumped them into the shoegazer niche of the time. Rather, it was the odd use of pop structures and the ability to change tempo and chords in the middle of songs. Ian Masters and Meriel Barham [the original vocalist from Lush] often sang in a fey ethereal voice that was just icing on the layers of guitars and keyboards.

4 songs from two EP's:

Half-life EP
Half-life, remembered
Baby Maker

Flesh Ballon EP
Hunted
Kinky Love
