TWIN ATLANTIC REVIEWED
Full of delightful Scottish charm and a sound to enchant, Twin Atlantic ensured the gathered few at the Stoke Sugarmill will go away remembering exactly who they are.
After impressive support from Hardcore act Failsafe, who provided high energy action with impressive precision, it could almost be said that the main act had a lot to live up to. Yet within a minute of Twin Atlantic’s set it was clear that the band would meet such expectations, and then some. Rattling through hits including “Turning Into John Wayne” and the delightful “Lightspeed”, the foursome showcased their infectious tone and a professional attitude to rival most bands. Despite a poor turn out, frontman Sam McTrusty remained jovial throughout, even ribbing the crowd for their lack of enthusiasm.
“Old Grey Face” and the irresistibly intricate “Human After All” followed to a slightly more rousing reception, but undoubtedly the moment of the night was provided by “Caribbean War Syndrome”. With the addition of an electric cello, the foursome astounded with a rousing and enchanting melody and powerful climax, demonstrating almost every facet of their undeniable talent. With McTrusty’s charming Glaswegian accent dripping off every word and a guitar trio of precision and passion, it is safe to say that, should they return to the Sugarmill, they will have absolutely no trouble in drawing a crowd.
