Separation From The Animals

Twin Atlantic announce their brand new, eighth studio album Separation From The Animals - a declaration of truth and the band’s most brutally honest record, arriving via Dance To The Radio. Separation From The Animals is an album born of two tales of triumph and perseverance – one of Sam McTrusty grappling with his own ghosts, and the other of their finest album to date coming after a time when band morale was at an all time low. The day the band finished work on their last album, 2024’s Meltdown, was also the day McTrusty packed up his entire life and studio to start a new life in Toronto with wife and two kids, unaware of the rich seam of songwriting that it would inspire. In Canada, with just his studio and his past to reconcile with as he navigated his new life, McTrusty found himself in that ‘tunnel’ once again. Now with the emotional maturity to face that pain and take ownership of his identity, McTrusty has shaped those feelings into an album that leans on classic ‘60s and ‘70s influences while still maintaining Twin Atlantic’s quintessential heartfelt, anthemic, arena-shaking DNA, with bassist Ross McNae helping steer the record’s transatlantic creation as co-producer.
