Menstruation Sisters are more of a natural phenomenon than a musical group. Owing more to the sound of ice melting and eggs hatching than

Menstruation Sisters are more of a natural phenomenon than a musical group. Owing more to the sound of ice melting and eggs hatching than
strummed guitars and pounded drums, the Sisters keep one ear on the ground and the other towards the atmosphere. Rather than working
within the lines of modern rhythm and structure, they revert towards a primal direction, cutting off the fat and oozing forth only the most
natural and unfettered sounds. Naturally, such a technique can be unsettling, as it's not something most humans are interested to hear, or have
heard since upright-walking became a viable mode of transportation. This is music for those who kill their own food.
While remaining fairly anonymous within music scenes near and far, Menstruation Sisters have worked with labels such as New York City's Menlo
Park and Australia's Saucerlike, both daring enough to press the Sisters into a concrete form. Members of Menstruation Sisters have also
branched off and found time to collaborate with a variety of notables, such as Fennesz, John Zorn and Otomo Yoshihide. However, these high-
brow references do not hold any bearing over the decidedly ancient sound of Menstruation Sisters.
After a small variety of vinyl and compact disc releases, White Denim is happy to release brand new material by Australia's most confusing act,
three tracks that turn the clock back past Pangaea. « hide |
