Liverpool-based band Courting recently released their new track “the twins (1969)” via Lower Third Records.
The single appears on the deluxe edition of Lust For Life, adding another dynamic layer to the band’s genre-blurring catalogue.
“the twins (1969)” is a hypnotic, electro-rocking track that pulses with driving synths, angular guitars, and Courting’s signature off-kilter charm. Equal parts chaotic and calculated, the song channels a futuristic energy while echoing the swagger of post-punk and the urgency of modern dance-punk. It’s a dizzying, high-energy addition to the expanded album, and further proof of Courting’s playful but pointed evolution.
About the track by Sean Murphy-O’Neill:
“the twins is about only missing something once you’ve lost it. Filling boots, and leftovers.”
The song reflects on absence and emotional residue, using direct, conversational lyrics to explore how grief and change often register only in hindsight.
With its looping lines and tightly wound vocal delivery, it builds a growing sense of frustration and disconnection.
It’s a sharp, emotionally raw moment that fits right into the album’s bigger themes: duality, aftermath, and the uneasy push and pull between clarity and confusion.
