Twnie and the dreamy percolations / indie rock heart of "Stay Home" and "Fall In Love"

 

"all my friends / they say / that I'm always never around..."

The fluttering heart of "Stay Home" and "Fall In Love" by Twnie and from their brand new album "Apparition Liminale" sparkles and punches, dips into youthful memories, floats in 90's / 2000's iconography white when guitars were slung lower and ripped jeans were baggier. At least that is what I am feeling when listening to these tracks (and others) from "Apparition Liminale". The runaway percolations on "Stay Home", both darkly dreamy and emo fueled post hardcore feel so perfectly suited as a lost soundtrack to Donnie Darko and, equally, "Fall In Love" leans into a sort of teenage campfire song or slow motion skate board ride in an abandoned, drained Los Angeles swimming pool. 

The dreaminess bathed in a patina of nostalgia (to me) on these two tracks and others on "AL" are so inviting in a time machine sort of way. I feel a crush, amalgam of artists like Smashing Pumpkins, Bright Eyes, Pixies, Psychedelic Furs, Better Than Ezra or thereabouts. You may, of course, feel other sonic touchstones especially if you are in your 20's or even in your teens but, either way, I am guessing you and I will still be having similar wanderlust dreams.
