I KNOW when I really rate a band when I start wishing they were French. But heavy-eyed sisters Catherine and Allison Pierce come from New York (Alabama originally) and so almost qualify for geographical coolness.
The very first low strings set the tone for the desolate Love You More (out Oct 25) and the their bleak harmonies shun any high notes that might hint at optimism.
