Twee pop meets '70s Motown production in the sophomore full-length from Lisa O'Neill and Emma Anderson. The pair's lovesick lyricism finds its equally earnest partner in that era's glissy fake violins, chipper rhythm guitars, and copulating horns.
Lisa O'Neill and Emma Anderson, collectively know as Sing-Sing, have just unleashed their second full-length album Sing-Sing and I. Drawing on such diverse influences as folk-rock, heavy metal hammer-ons, a bit of Motown drumming, and just out-and-out pop, Sing-Sing and I carries the distinctive Sing-Sing sound but, probably due to the extensive American touring, the songs are edgier, favouring guitars over the electronic samples that dominated debut album The Joy of Sing-Sing, whilst retaining Sing-Sing's trademark lyricism - personal and observational but still combined with a charm and wit.
