22 Brides – Review

22 Brides

(Zero Hour)
by Scott Hefflon

22 Brides sisters Carrie and Libby Johnson have traveled the world, played in punk bands and in geisha houses, worked in a pet store and one of them had a brief stint as a phone sex operator. These worldly influences, as well as a passion for gutsy pop, come together to form their self-titled release on Zero Hour. While on the surface it usually coasts prettily along, sooner or later, a vocal snags your ear, or a powerful guitar jam gives you a start.
