    The music on Twins is more of the fantastically great quality we've come to expect.

    Despite how often he churns out work, this is steadfast and cohesive.

    It's playful rather than facetious, and the combination of sweet pop tunes and mean distorted guitar is as winning as it ever was. [Nov 2012, p.104]

  1. A lot of this music reminds me of the psychedelic punk 60s band Big Brother and the Holding Co. They added Janis Joplin to the band to do vocals, and she had her work cut out for her. I love this album. So refreshing, invigorating and highly recommended. Expand
  2. It is strange album, and there is beauty in this strangeness. In fact, that sound won't carry us away in some outer space, but at the same time, this is an album that creates a wonderful atmosphere and allows us to go in there and take perhaps the most comfortable place. Every song which I heard was pretty simple, but it was just the first impression. After some time your ears will find something very interesting and fascinating, something that would never ever let you forget about what you heard. Expand
