Twin Shadow

Twin Shadow is an act on the Starverb influence map. Their sound grew out of Lou Reed, The Smiths, Born This Way: The Remix, Neon Indian and Lemonade.

They run in the same orbit as The Chain Gang of 1974, Lower Dens, Panama, Miami Horror and Niki & the Dove, sharing audiences, venues and reference points rather than a straight line of influence. Their influence carried into Sweeter Than Fiction, where the same ideas turn up rearranged for a later generation. Altogether the chart holds 24 connections around Twin Shadow, reaching back through Lou Reed and forward to Sweeter Than Fiction.
