A lot of songwriters might use their craft as a means to process life, but not many end up with a wild end result like Disgusting Sisters. A winning mix of horror, humour, musical influences that span from electro to emo and a wealth of joint experience, it speaks to a childhood of pet rats and pranks; world-building and wicked games. “We've both had very chaotic lives, so this first album is us trying to take all that chaos and give it a shape,” suggests Josephine Hopkins, as her sister Julianna nods: “It’s the outlet for all that.”

Enter the duo’s whirlwind debut ‘Skin & Blisters’: a record that comes good on all the tongue-in-cheek, slightly gruesome yet perpetually entertaining promise that their name - partly a homage to Succession’s Disgusting Brothers; partly a reference to the “ugly step sisters from Cinderella because we kind of feel like them on stage” - suggests.

Across 10 tracks, the pair aim their lasers at hopeless exes; productivity punishers and the sad drudge of the 9-5. Their delivery is riddled with deadpan absurdity, but at their core, Disgusting Sisters mean every word. “I hope people can relate to the songs because they’re all very honest and inspired by real moments.” says Josephine. “We're just being ourselves.”
