A Toronto duo with a fearless, uncompromising sound that combines the exquisite disquiet of singer Johanne Williams' vocals with the discordantly melodic, electronic landscapes that producer and multi-instrumentalist David Trusz creates.

Recorded in their studio in the empty, industrialized port zone of Toronto, 'March of the Humans' sounds like nothing else on earth. It is futuristic and organic, synthesized yet human, harsh yet melodic. One minute there's a bar room piano or a drum that sounds like a drunk beating a garbage bin with a baseball bat; the next a gloomy synthesizer whooshes in straight out of science fiction, a rock guitar howls, and Johanne's voice begins to cast its spell again.

This is an album with depth and variety, a kaleidoscope of moods. Even darker and more beguiling than its predecessor, 'March of the Humans' crackles and fizzes with the kind of sonic imperfection Sissy were striving for. "Nowadays everyone can be perfect," says David. "It's just a time and a place and it's not perfect," says Johanne. "It has a certain emotion."
