{"product_id":"twisted-teens-the-holy-cross-tigers","title":"The Holy Cross Tigers","description":"Twisted Teens - aka Caspian Halliwell and RJ Santos - didn’t really exist before its 2024 debut LP, now known as The Orange Album. The pair had been making music from Cajun\/country to anarcho-folk under the radar and off the grid, living and working itinerantly. Twisted Teens came from a pandemic-induced burst of inspiration that drew them together to record, in suitably lo-fi fashion, at Caspian’s New Orleans home. Their first album quickly became a modern classic of sticky, warm rock, bunching blues, folk, and punk into a raw and irresistible concoction. The duo came back strong in 2026 with Blame the Clown - instantly, enthusiastically cosigned Pitchfork and Paste - and then the equally acclaimed Florida Water Blues, an absurdist take on their wanderings around the world.\n\u003cp\u003eTheir third magnetic and perfectly ragged album of 2026 is a saga of heartbreak and hidden triumph called The Holy Cross Tigers. The songs are anthems of longing, and myriad disappointments, fueled by everything from a brutal breakup to snitching ex-friends. Despite these woes, The Holy Cross Tigers has a sense of radiance, a feeling of reflected light pushing against the sadness. Instantly relatable, it feels like a few friends sharing the burdens of life with one another, the results strange and ecstatic because they are operating by their own rules. It is a blown-out transmission from the lip of heartbreak, a place where even the lucky have been and from which they have hopefully returned.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eReleased: November 2026\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003eCat: SP1755\u003cbr\u003eLabel: Sub Pop\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eListen\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ciframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/lfYH6XuHrhQ?si=eT7b1QN3_S_ZpF63\" title=\"YouTube video player\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTracklist\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e1.Stalks\u003cbr\u003e2.When We First Met\u003cbr\u003e3.Be An Angel\u003cbr\u003e4.Blue Rose\u003cbr\u003e5.I Spend My Time Crying\u003cbr\u003e6.Blue Flower\u003cbr\u003e7.I Bring\u003cbr\u003e8.Look In The Mirror\u003cbr\u003e9.Lock And Key\u003cbr\u003e10.Figure It Out\u003cbr\u003e11.Armed With A Vision\u003cbr\u003e12.Every Flower\u003cbr\u003e13.Darker The Night Is The Brighter I See\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Twisted Teens","offers":[{"title":"LP-Maroon","offer_id":56902701515138,"sku":"06\/11\/26-DISCAR","price":25.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"CD","offer_id":56902711312770,"sku":"06\/11\/26-DISCAR","price":13.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1795\/4365\/files\/TwistedTeens_TheHolyCrossTigers_Cover_1500x1500_a4851bb9-62f1-4b27-93b1-0d04c5184b6f.jpg?v=1789045950","url":"https:\/\/recordculture.com\/products\/twisted-teens-the-holy-cross-tigers","provider":"Record Culture","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
