The Twilight Sad
are an indie rock band from Kilsyth, Scotland, comprising James Graham
(vocals), Andy MacFarlane (guitar), and Mark Devine (drums). The band
have released three full-length albums, as well as several EPs and
singles.
Following on from their Andrew Weatherall produced
album ‘No One Can Ever Know’, The Twilight Sad are now giving away one
of the nine tracks from their forthcoming remix album.
‘No One Can Ever Know – The Remixes’ includes collaborations form the
likes of Com Truise, Breton, Tom Furse (The Horrors) and, notably,
Liars, who the band credited as one of their biggest inspirations for
the album.
The album, due for release on Monday 5th November will be preceded
with a full UK tour this October, as well as a homecoming date in
December:
We listened to the giveaway track ‘Nil’ (Liars Remix) from the forthcoming album, and here’s what we thought:
A slimy synth prods and harasses the popped up cluster of
crackling beats. Then an invidious set of liquid vibrations purr sweet
rhythms into your inner ear. This lip-smackingly tasty track has a
hell-for-leather pace and a frothy mixture of inventive vocals-
together with some juddering motifs. This piece is a sonic swirl of
activity that swarms around your head like a befuddled host of
moon-drunk moths. - © Neil_Mach October 2012 -
