George Lewis Jr.'s brand of 802s pastiche never feels cheap - as if it is relying on the successful sonic tropes of an in vogue hip period of culture - and that's because, for Twin Shadow, the genre is merely a means to an end rather than the end itself. "Five Seconds" and its crazy music video are, again, retro creations that are certainly evocative of the 802s zeitgeist, but Lewis Jr. is so fluent in this generic dialect that you barely notice that you've been transported back a few decades. New album Confess is [...]

Great song, great video... Like, really fucking great video. I don't think people understand how dope this is... Should have 1 million views by now, but people are too busy watching cover videos of Bustin Jeiber songs (yes I meant to spell it that way). Do yourself a favor and watch this. Flying kittens and double rainbows can wait, for now at least. Twin Shadow makes pop music for adults with a pulse, and I dig that... You should too. Brian - Shadows On Stars

And I certainly didn't picture George Lewis, Jr., chain-choking, helmet-pounding and knife-throwing his way - albeit with a partner in justice - through an entire crew of opposition cronies. But the [...]
