TWIN BERLIN

In an age of electro-pop, over-produced, indie rock, Twin Berlin rebel against the passing fad to bring the revival of no-frills, in-your-face rock and roll.

Upon formation, Twin Berlin was immediately recognized by MTV being nominated as the Best Breakout Boston band and playing a show on the 2009 VMA tour alongside All Time Low and The White Tie Affair. Consequently, Twin Berlin was launched into Comcast’s “On Demand” air time, and into rotation on Boston’s biggest indie/alternative radio station, WFNX.

While recording new material in the studio Mikey Welsh (Weezer) stepped in to create the cover art. But, before the recordings could even be finished, Travis Barker of Blink-182 became involved, inviting them to record with him in Los Angeles. “Their mix of gritty guitars and undeniable hooks really drew me in.” explained Barker.
