Twin Temple Announce Shooter Jennings Produced Album ‘Doomed Lovers’ For October 9 Release

Coming on the hot heels of their latest controversy the Los Angeles-based husband-and-wife duo Twin Temple today announce their third record, DOOMED LOVERS, for an October 9 release via their own Pentagrammaton Records, sharing the title-track single via all digital platforms and can be heard below. Having been abruptly removed from shows this past week by country music artist Charley Crockett for their Satanic imagery, leading to a public invitation to the band from Jack White to support him in Hollywood, this September, Twin Temple additionally have added a set of headlining shows around their previously announced performances supporting Danzig. Tickets to all headlining dates on-sale to the general public starting Friday [all dates below].

Alexandra and Zachary James spoke with Rolling Stone earlier today about the controversy and the record.

Discussing the single, Twin Temple offers, “This is the philosophical centerpiece of the album – a theatrical and confessional take on all or nothing love, the dark side of devotion and centuries old mythic literary Romantic themes. It longs for a love so enduring and eternal that it ultimately consumes, obliterates, and drives one to madness and death. At its core, it asks the question – ‘What happens when your lover dies?’”

But what makes the song unique is that it rejects the conventional and culturally accepted answer… ‘I know I should tell you to find someone new’, in favor of raw, unfiltered and selfish desire, things that would be shameful to speak in mundane reality.”
