Pearl – Act Like Sisters

Baltimore punk 4 piece, Pearl, today have shared their new single “Act Like Sisters,” the latest track from their upcoming LP Love And Grief, due out April 20th via 20/20 Records.

The pummeling, kinetic new track also arrives alongside a Sihan Xu directed video. Over the years, the quartet has made a big name for themselves in the Maryland scene, honing their frenetic and bass heavy sets.

“‘Act Like Sisters’ is the epitome of any horror movie in which the lead actress is pushed to her limits, combusting into a ‘Carrie’ like fury after being manipulated one too many times,” vocalist Sienna Cureton-Mahoney explains. “I channeled these women as I wrote the song, reflecting on the few times when I’ve been confronted with the knowledge of someone I respect fully lying to my face. Should I take the high road or should I burn everything to the ground? This song is about the latter. It’s the metaphorical slap of having trust  broken and the violent gut reaction that follows. Each song in the album ‘Love And Grief’ is a different facet on the emotional scale and Act Like Sisters is steeped in rage.”

Describing the power house that is Pearl, Steve Johnson says, “Flynn Diguardia and Jesse Hutchinson are an intuitive and fluid rhythm section who rather seamlessly (far as I can tell) slide the tempo right where they want it. DiGuardia’s body of work is remarkably diverse… Sienna Cureton-Mahoney’s voice will break into a scream and traffics in a rasp with each syllable clear as sunlight on glass, providing as much texture as Tommy Rouse’s winding procession of power chords.”
