Sisters have today released their new single titled ‘Guerrilla’, a song that walks into the room like it already knows everyone is pretending to have their lives together. Instead of politely asking for attention, the Liverpool based five piece kicks open the door with a nervous energy that feels part confession, part confrontation. The track captures that strange modern feeling of being surrounded by endless noise while somehow feeling completely stuck, then turns that frustration into something loud enough to shake the walls.
The magic of ‘Guerrilla’ is how effortlessly Sisters balance vulnerability with sheer sonic force. The song begins with an almost weightless atmosphere before dragging listeners into a storm of heavy guitars and emotional intensity. It is the kind of musical mood swing that would normally feel risky, but Sisters make the chaos sound carefully calculated. They are not throwing things at the wall just to see what sticks. They are building a wall, painting it black, and inviting everyone to stare at it.
Gigi’s vocals carry the emotional weight of the track with a confidence that refuses to oversell the pain. There is a raw honesty here that cuts through the polished perfection many bands chase, because ‘Guerrilla’ understands that imperfections are often where the real electricity lives. The song feels like a conversation you have been avoiding with yourself, except someone turned that conversation into a roaring guitar anthem.
Sisters clearly understand the fine art of making discomfort sound addictive. ‘Guerrilla’ taps into the intensity of grunge legends while pushing forward with a modern edge that feels restless and alive. It has echoes of bands who made emotional chaos their playground, but Sisters are not simply digging through the past for inspiration. They are taking those influences, throwing them into a blender, and creating something with its own sharp teeth.
With ‘Guerrilla’, Sisters prove they are not just another promising band waiting for their moment. They are already creating the kind of music that demands a reaction, whether that reaction is dancing, shouting, or wondering why your speakers suddenly feel like they are judging your life choices. It is a powerful return that turns frustration into fuel and confirms Sisters as a band worth watching closely.
About Sisters & ‘Guerrilla’
‘Guerrilla’ arrives at a pivotal moment. Since emerging in the dark months of last year with fierce independence and formidable determination, the five-piece, their members drawn from Brooklyn and upstate New York, Baltimore, Switzerland and a small town outside London, have built significant momentum. Going it alone, Sisters have drawn BBC and Radio X radio support, taken on regular headline UK performances, an East Coast US tour and an otherworldy live session for Low Four Studios.
Written from a place of emotional inertia, ‘Guerrilla’ captures the tension between internal movement and an external world that appears frozen. Airy, spacious passages give way without warning to waves of heavy, murky guitars, the song continually shifting before erupting with instrumental weight. The effect is deliberately disorientating, demanding the kind of full attention that Sisters have become known for in their live performances. Fragility and force exist side by side.
Picking up the baton from current fascinations including Mary In The Junkyard and Geese, while thinking back to the uncompromising grunge intensity of Hole, Breeders and PJ Harvey, ‘Guerrilla’ broadens the band’s already fluid musical language.
Vocalist and lyricist, Gigi explains: “The sessions that birthed ‘Guerilla’ were the first time we really took a leading role in the production of our work and what we hear is a more ‘established’ version of what Sisters sounds like as a band.
It was written out of frustration, with the name itself implying the initiation of a war, which feels like an absolute necessity for me when I feel like I’m being forced to stew in stagnant air.
For me, that’s what going home feels like. I needed to write a song that was as heavy as that stagnant air, so I could make sure it didn’t stick to me. Whatever I have to say in the song is entirely backed by the weight of the music which, to me, justifies the feeling. It’s got to be ok cause it’s now alive and forever in what you can hear.”
Their first comprehensive Sisters UK headline tour opens tonight in Manchester and continues to take the band across eight cities before concluding with a hometown show in Liverpool.
