Hi! Iโ€™m Anya from Glasgow, Scotland and Iโ€™m so excited to be writing for Clunk! Gigs are my happy place and my desert-island band is James. Iโ€™m also a trained pianist and play a little bit of drums, and I have two golden retrievers that I love to bits.

Courting announce deluxe edition of 2025 album ‘Lust For Life’ with new single ‘the twins (1969)’

Liverpool rock band Courting have released the launch of their coming-soon deluxe of their album ‘Lust For Life,’ with the twins (1969), leaving listeners with bated breath for the rest of the album to drop. Frontman Sean Murphy-Oโ€™Neill stated โ€œ’The Twins‘ is about only missing something once you’ve lost it. Filling boots, and leftovers.โ€

This track is a seamless sequel to ‘Lust for Life,’ Courtingโ€™s previous album that gained them countless new fans and sent them halfway across the globe on tours. Itโ€™s gritty, fast, repetitive and the music video fits it like a glove. The ending feels like the interval during a thriller; the deluxe isnโ€™t a want, itโ€™s a need.

I find myself reminded of The Voidz‘ ‘Pointlessness,’ not because of similarities in musical or rhythmic style, but because both these tracks are ones Iโ€™d add to a playlist made to soundtrack internal chaos. ‘the twins (1969)’ is exactly what the feeling of โ€œif-onlyโ€ would sound like; hindsight and aftermath can be accidentally, frustratingly heartbreaking.
