Ignoring the zeitgeist sounds of the Strokes & Stellastarr (there's no way that these guys own a Television album) the Scissor Sisters have missed out on becoming trendy scenesters to plough their own furrow in the plentiful fields of camp party music. Like fellow genre-splicing nutters Electric Six, Scissor Sisters are a band who won't be categorized. Influenced by vintage Bowie, Roxy Music & Elton John & with the audacity to cover Pink Floyd, the Scissor Sisters are one of the most unique & exciting bands around. Their self-titled debut album is chock-full of cheesy-yet-awesome tunes that incorporate disco, soft rock & everything in between. The Floyd cover 'Comfortably Numb' evokes 'Saturday Night Fever' era Bee Gees whilst 'Mary' is a wonderful pastiche of Toto. (Review copyright Amazon.co.uk)... (more)(less)
