Car Seat Headrest has unveiled another preview from forthcoming new album Twin Fantasy – a re-recorded, re-imagined new version of the 2011 self-released Bandcamp masterpiece of the same name – which will be released Friday 16 February via Matador / Remote Control. The track was featured as Zane Lowe’s World Record on Beats 1.
Album opener ‘My Boy (Twin Fantasy)’ commences with the sparse declaration of “my boy, we don’t see each other much,” and blossoms into a towering climax, with the life-affirming mantra of “It’ll take some time, but somewhere down the line / We won’t be alone” standing as the statement-of-intent for the record’s exhilarating, adventurous sonic and emotional world.
Following the release of singles ‘Beach Life In Death’, ‘Nervous Young Inhumans’ (with its accompanying video that marked Toledo’s directorial debut) and ‘Cute Thing’, Twin Fantasy is already shaping up as one of this year’s most anticipated releases.
With a seven-piece band in tow (including members of Naked Giants), Car Seat Headrest will bring its revelatory live show to Australia this February. Full tour dates can be found below.
