Album Notes & Community Reviews

The enigmatic avant-garde collective continues their exploration of disturbing, narrative-driven conceptual works with 'Tweedles!'. The rock opera follows the deeply uncomfortable internal monologues of a self-loathing protagonist obsessed with sex and vampires, set against dark, industrialized backing tracks and Eastern European musical motifs.
