It’s an uncompromising take on modern-day relationships. There’s bloody betrayal, close friendships going awry, the dreaded aftermath, terrifyingly awkward social situations, and folk away in the huff.
It’s frank, honest and meaningful. It makes you think. It’s lyrically strong. It’s TwinsTown’s opening track on their forthcoming debut album, Brankholm Brae.
It’s Welcome to My World.
At least that’s what I thought, based on only listening to the song. In ‘reality’ the song is about vampires. Smackay, aka Stuart Mackay, told me. He must know.
Anyway, buy the album and interpret it as you like! However you like it, it’s a belter to open the album. Welcome to My World sets Brankholm Brae up. It’s going to be a walk on the wild side.

Welcome to my world
TwinsTown, Welcome to My World
I think I’m okay man
I must be feeling brave
I just had the shakes
Like someone stood on my grave
I must have deserved it
Nobody’s perfect
There’s a table in hell
And I just reserved it
The full lyrics don’t disappoint and neither does the music. It’s the finest in indie rock; pop accessibility with noise, experimental and authentic, with a wee bit of ironic posturing (more of that to come, no doubt).
This is how the opening track ends…
I think I’ll be quite alright if I…
TwinsTown, Welcome to My World
Pass them and they don’t smile
If they don’t look me in the eye
Yeah, welcome to my world.
