Alt-rock duo, Nova Twins, have just dropped their brand new single, “Piranha,” along with a music video. The track follows “Monsters” and “Soprano,” and comes from their third album, Parasites & Butterflies, out on August 29th via Marshall Records. Watch it below and read more from the band.

“This track explores growing tensions around the world, which can feel overwhelming at times, leaving you unsure of where to start,” the band shares. “It delves into themes of confrontation, rebellion, and fear. Using imagery of predatory waters, it symbolises vulnerability, power, and questioning authority. It also reflects society’s cutthroat nature, but emphasises coming together and supporting each other. There is strength in unity.”

With “Piranha,” Nova Twins continue to carve their path, unafraid to challenge, question, and provoke. The track offers a powerful glimpse of what’s still to come on Parasites & Butterflies, an album that promises to bridge chaos and beauty, strength and vulnerability. With nods to the raw, chaotic style of The Blair Witch Project, the video captures the ominous, predatory nature at the heart of “Piranha.”

The album was recorded in Vermont, USA, with legendary producer Rich Costey (Foo Fighters, Muse, Deftones, Sam Fender). From front to back, it’s a genre-shattering statement of intent, balancing dancefloor detonators with moments of raw introspection. Full of contrast and scale, it reveals Nova Twins at their most expansive.

Since bursting out of the independent UK scene, the Mercury Music Prize and two-time BRIT Award nominees have rewritten the rulebook of what a modern rock band can achieve. They’ve dominated iconic festivals from Glastonbury to Summer Sonic, shared stages with legends like Foo Fighters, Muse, and Bring Me The Horizon, and drawn praise from global icons like Rage Against The Machine’s Tom Morello, who calls them “an incredible band,” and Elton John, who describes them as “phenomenal.”

The duo’s acclaim spans both their music and their cultural impact. They’ve won prestigious awards at the Music Week Women in Music Awards, AIM Awards, Kerrang! Awards, and the Nordoff & Robbins O2 Silver Clef Awards. In 2022, their Mercury Music Prize nomination marked a historic milestone as the first Black rock band to be shortlisted.

Beyond music, Nova Twins’ Voices For The Unheard initiative amplifies underrepresented artists in the alternative sphere while supporting vital causes like The Black Curriculum. They also spearheaded the introduction of the Alternative category at the MOBO Awards in 2022 and established a Creative Musicianship Scholarship at ICMP to champion future generations of diverse talent. With Parasites & Butterflies, Nova Twins continue their meteoric rise, inviting fans to embark on a bold new chapter.
