It has been a busy time for Melbourne’s Twin Beasts (formerly The Toot Toot Toots). In the past year they have played at Victoria’s Meredith Music Festival, at Western Australia’s Rock It Festival, at the inaugural White Night Melbourne Festival and to a sold out crowd for their season at Melbourne’s Spiegeltent. In 2012 they released their debut album, Outlaws, which was awarded ABC Radio National Album of the Week. Most recently they recorded their sophomore album, Badlove, with ARIA nominated producer Burke Reid (The Drones, Oh Mercy, Gerling) due to be released in February, 2014.
“Yes it is good. Yes it is noisy. And yes it has captured my ear and held it long enough to win me over!”
Tim Ritchie, Editor, Music and Presentation, ABC Radio National
In the past four years Twin Beasts have gone from playing small regional shows and recording in bedrooms, to playing national festivals and recording with some of Australia’s most esteemed producers. Following two EPs, they released their debut album, Outlaws, in 2012, to great critical appraisal. Patrick Emery, in a four star review from The Age newspaper, called it “triumphant”. Samuel J. Fell, in his review in the Sydney Morning Herald, said it was “in a league of its own.”
In May, 2013, the band, then known as The Toot Toot Toots, began recording their much anticipated sophomore album, Badlove, with producer Burke Reid. For a month the band and Reid went into lockdown, first for pre-production in Phillip Island, Victoria, and then to the New South Wales’ Central Coast to record. The band and Reid worked closely and in isolation throughout the month, and came out of the studio both with a new album, and a new name. The name is Twin Beasts, and their album Badlove is a step in a different direction. Marking a clear departure from their earlier narrative- and concept-driven work, the album is currently in the process of being mixed with Reid in Canada. Exploring the themes of love, lust and infatuation, Badlove is slated for a release in early 2014.
