I'm not sure I could comfortably state that I'm still a fan of the Scottish band, Twin Atlantic, but I'm perfectly happy to admit that I used to be, in a big way.
I saw them in 2008 when they were all young and fresh-faced, and were the support band for The Subways, and I was one of the few members of the crowd who was actually appreciative of their noise, whereas much of the audience became highly abusive and added a very unpleasant vibe to the already full atmosphere of the old Carling Academy. Twin Atlantic, true to form, were fairly abusive in return, we were treated to a variety of hand signals and slating comments, but the set was still tight, and as I was a working "Music Journalist" at the time, they received a good review.
So anyway, enough of the nostalgia, I used to be a fan, and am still well aware of their seemingly sudden success that is smeared all over Radio One. It's good to hear them being played by the radio music "gurus", Zane Low and Fearne Cotton on such a regular basis.
Normally, I would put up a video of theirs, a favourite track of mine, or something... But nah, they're getting enough coverage so here's a picture seeing as I've had a four year crush on their front man, Sam.
