Twin Temple, currently on tour as the opener for the Ghost and Volbeat co-headline tour (read our review here), has released a new music video. The animated clip for their latest single, ‘Let’s Have A Satanic Orgy’, which included a Spanish cover entitled ‘Tengamos La Orgía Satánica’ is streaming on all DSPs, and also available as limited vinyl release at the merch booth on the tour. Watch the 18+ Pentagrammatoon cartoon here:

Twin Temple’s Alexandra comments,
“Come take a trip with us into the depraved pits of Hell and slake thine eyes on our most blasphemous Pentagrammatoon picture yet! Not for the faint of heart, this titillating picture has already been banned before its release. Don’t watch with your pastor looking over your shoulder. Warning – to watch this is to sin. Proceed with caution.”
‘Let’s Have A Satanic Orgy/Tengamos La Orgía Satánica’ marks a departure from Twin Temple’s previous ways of working. “Unlike the 24-hour live session with the band,” explains Zachary, “this time we played every instrument ourselves (other than the saxophone) as well as produced, engineered and mixed the record ourselves. We still kept everything analogue and one take to give it a raw feel, but it was just the two of us in the studio together doing everything. It allowed us to expand the sounds and gave us the freedom to add more instrumentation. We always like to stir the cauldron and change things up, and we were excited about challenging ourselves in this evil new way.”
Twin Temple’s Alexandra comments, “We love Latin music. It’s an integral part of early doo-wop and a huge influence on us. This latest single is us continuing to explore that concept and sound in our own blasphemous way, of course. We chose to have a flip cover for the 7” as opposed to having an A-Side and B-Side so that the Spanish and English versions are equal. They’ll be released simultaneously as well, to reflect that equality.”

Deviating from the standard path calls for a soundtrack of rebellious music, that which Twin Temple brilliantly procures with hypnotising and illustrious melodies. Much like their mood-driven, defiant inspirations, Alexandra concludes that “this [music] is about change; tearing down the old guard, and shaking up the status quo, which to us, is Satanic as fuck.” The hellish flames of the temple can be seen burning bright into 2022, with plenty of further news to come.
