Atlanta post-wave project TWINS (an acronym That Which Is Not Said) is premiering with us today the video for the track “Taste Of Peppermint”—originally filmed live for a performance on Adult Swim’s Bloodfeast.
DKA Records co-founder, and TWINS Maestro Matt Weiner elaborates on the songs’ lyrics and composition:
‘Taste of Peppermint’ was the first song that I wrote and recorded after I moved and had set my studio back up in the new house. Lyrically the song deals with the bittersweet feelings that come with taking a chance, making a change, and a leap forward, unsure of where you’re going to land, but coming out the other side knowing that nothing can ever seem quite the same as it used to seem and learning to live with the changes. Musically it was one of those songs that just came together reasonably effortlessly, I still have no idea how I came up with that weird drum/synth break in the intro, sometimes you just have to let your brain go on autopilot and show you what’s swimming around your own subconscious.
The track featured on TWINS’ self titled LP scheduled for release May 4th. For further listening on the new record, listen the tracks “Glass Breaks Glass”, and “Stuck” here.
