If you’ve ever wondered what it might sound like to wrap pure fury in neon candy paper, Twin Skeletons have the answer. Their new single “Pacesetter” takes all the rage of the alternative underground and dunks it straight into a vat of bubble-gum flavoured doom. The result? A track that punches hard but still leaves you humming along on the bus.
The South UK quartet — sibling duo James and Phoebe, with Joe and Fred completing the skeleton crew — aren’t strangers to bending genres until they squeak. Since forming in 2023, they’ve been tearing up sold-out shows with a sound that ricochets from Paramore-style verses to Bring Me The Horizon breakdowns, without losing that sticky-sweet pop edge. “Pacesetter” feels like the distillation of everything they’ve been working towards: catchy, heavy, chaotic, and kind of delicious.
And because this is Twin Skeletons, the live treatment is just as important as the track. Think props, stage design, and lighting rigs synced to every beat — the kind of show where you walk out covered in sweat, glitter, and maybe a little existential dread.
