The Sisters blend '70s pop in the tradition of Elton John (and "Take Your 
Mama" is totally in that vein), with some synth-pop (a bit like Pet Shop 
Boys) and dance music that borrows from disco and electonica.  Their 
"Comfortably Numb" cover, which sounds like the disco Bee Gees fronting a 
techno band, was a big hit in the UK.  When I saw them, that was the song 
that really got the crowd going.  That being said, while it fits within 
their sensibility, it is the least representative track on the album.
