Twin Lords – “Stoned Cutter” (audio) (premiere)

Comprised of bassist Dan Alex Rivera and drummer Andrew Hernandez, Twin Lords are set to release their debut album Devastating Planetary Shift 20 September on Handshake, Inc. As you can hear on the new track “Stoned Cutter”, the New York duo specializes in sludge/noise rock of the most visceral variety, but when you dig deeper into the song, you find it cuts — literally and figuratively — to the bone.

“This is a song about someone dealing with a serious situation and how it has effected every second of their life,” Rivera says.

“The first cut numbs the pain,” he roars on the track, “Second the rush follows…The horror / The pain / An empty shell’s left of her.”
