Fauna Twin's "Edge Of The Coin" is psychedelic pop at its finest
French/Welsh pop twosome Fauna Twin are sharing "Edge Of The Coin", a new single from their upcoming debut EP The Hydra.
"Edge Of The Coin" flits between the intense mechanical guitars of Ratatat and St. Vincent's wonky pop brilliance - it's disjointed and quirky and full of jaw-dropping electro flourishes that burrow deep into your brain. This track doesn't sit in one place for too long, lurching and jolting into different areas on a whim, but it'll still get stuck in your mind for days.
Fauna Twin is Claire Jacquemard and Owain Ginsberg. Explaining the kind of music they make, they say: “Our influences are a massive tornado of different styles, from Queen to King Crimson, crossing by PJ Harvey, Fiona Apple via R. Stevie Moore to Radiohead. This leads us to a chameleon church with no god, where we commit everyday. Fauna Twin’s music turns into a kind of hybrid shoegazish-drama-pop with a special appeal for textures, structures and constructed rhythm sections.”
