Genre-bending heavy alt-rock duo Nova Twins have released the new single “Cleopatra,” an electro-rock rush of intent that sees these fierce ladies declare: “Wouldn’t wanna be anyone but me – I’m the fucking queen.”

Written off the back of the Black Lives Matter protests, one half of the duo, guitarist/vocalist Amy Love explains:

“Attending them made us feel powerful as two mixed-race women in an era where people were suddenly waking up to Anti Racists conversations. It’s about celebrating who we are and being proud of where we come from. We hope this song encourages people from all walks of life to act and feel the same way too.”

Taken from their highly-anticipated new album, Supernova, due out on June 17th through Marshall Records, the duo have also announced their biggest headline shows to date for November 2022.

Supernova Track Listing:

1. Power (Intro)
2. Antagonist
3. Cleopatra
4. K.M.B.
5. Fire & Ice
6. Puzzles
7. A Dark Place For Somewhere Beautiful
8. Toolbox

10. Enemy
11. Sleep Paralysis

I have an unhealthy obsession with bad horror movies, the song Wanted Dead Or Alive and crap British game shows. I do this not because of the sex, drugs and rock 'n' roll lifestyle it affords me but more because it gives me an excuse to listen to bands that sound like hippos mating.
