Nova Twins - 'Monsters'
Nova Twins explode back onto the alternative rock scene with new single ‘Monsters’ – and it doesn’t disappoint.
Comprising of Amy Love and Georgia South, the breakthrough duo have done it again. ‘Monsters’ further cements their reputation within the industry as one of the hottest bands in town.
Diving in headfirst without hesitation, the track grabs you by the very first note and refuses to let go. It’s brimming with energy and attitude and has ‘Nova Twins’ written all over it. The guitar riffs are raw, distorted, and catchy. South’s bass-heavy grooves combined with Love’s versatile vocals makes for an expansive track. It’s an adrenaline filled three and a half minutes that’s impossible to ignore.
‘Monsters’ explores themes of rebellion and empowerment. The duo’s skills to combine current social commentary with personal experiences is obvious and one of the many reasons they are so well-received within the alt-rock genre. The track is relatable to all who are listening – whether it’s fighting inner conflicts or external obstacles in life.
Speaking on the new release, Amy and Georgia say "Monsters is about awakening to and understanding your mental health. Growing up, we often look outward, absorbing what life throws at us. Over time, the good and bad experiences start to settle. Before learning to navigate these feelings, you may face self-loathing, anxiety and a fear of who you've become. Confronting these emotions, breathing through them, and opening up to someone can help. Many people struggle with mental health, and this song aims to show vulnerability and let our audience know they’re not alone.”
The introduction of heavy synths and distortion before the final chorus creates yet another layer of grit. ‘Monsters’ is a song that keeps on giving – just when you think they couldn’t add anything more, they do.
Nova Twins have yet again outdone themselves. Their unique signature sound shines through in every aspect of the single. It’s fresh, modern, and undeniably their own – the duo continues to push boundaries and redefine what it means to be a rock band.
Whether you’re a longtime fan or new to their sound, “Monsters” is a must-listen that proves Nova Twins are unstoppable. Turn up the volume and let the chaos unfold.
