New Album Meltdown
Out August 9th On Staple Diet Records

November UK Headline Tour Announced
London, Brixton Electric - Nov 14th

Following a raucous, intimate hometown show at Glasgow's Garage earlier this week, Twin Atlantic have released the title-track from their forthcoming new album Meltdown. The album will be released on the band’s own label, Staple Diet Records, on August 9th. The band, who play another sold-out underplay in Stirling this evening, will perform a special headline date at Belladrum Festival on Saturday 27th July.

A euphoric, pop-rock anthem ‘Meltdown’ taps into the more emotional side to the record. “This was one of the easiest songs we’ve ever written as a band. It was the last song we added to the album after we felt like a certain flavour was missing, so we wrote this with a real purpose and I think that comes across in the simple nature of all the musical parts that Ross put together,” lead singer Sam McTrusty said of the track. “The track feels really raw and honest, which has always been our mission as a band. With Ross and I being dads of two we are very very familiar with the word meltdown of late. All of that being said after a meltdown you have to step back and learn from it and rebuild. Culturally it feels like we are all experiencing that right now so the word and meaning really resonated with the bigger picture of life going on around us when we made the album.” Listen to ‘Meltdown’ HERE.

Produced by McTrusty and bassist Ross McNae and mixed by longtime collaborator Romesh Dodangoda, from top to bottom Meltdown is a return to form for the band. Eleven slices of infectious, masterful pop-rock, Meltdown is equal parts guitar heavy bangers and emotionally driven heartfelt anthems. With one foot firmly in nostalgia, while wholeheartedly looking to the future, Twin Atlantic are back to their very best. 

Following a headline show at Belladrum Festival this weekend, the band return to the road this winter for a run of UK dates in November. Kicking off at Boilershop in Newcastle, the tour culminates with a show at London’s Brixton Electric on November 14th. Tickets for all shows on sale HERE.
