Mixerr Album Reviews #2,303

Twinspan - Erratus is a heavy electronic rock filled album with 16 new fresh breathtaking tracks for December 2020 on all digital platforms. Twinspan has definitely improved their sound and craft since their first album. The production sounds more polished and less distorted. This album leans more towards an emo metalcore sound than their last album. Each track is insane. Stasis is one of the singles and best songs off the album. However the band calls this album a very sad album as there are many sad songs such as Proclamation Emaciation, Lobotomized, A Rift in the Cluster, and Plastic Faces. There are little surprises sprinkled here and there.


Stasis is driven by hard edged electronic rock. Twinspan tells us everything will be alright during the song. The song seeks a change for better things. Stasis also deals with growing up.

How many nights spent up in that attic before the band can say they’ve had it? A thousand nights in makeshift bedrooms with thousands minds with little headroom. They now live with regret. Smokeless nights with shadowed tears. It's been like this for several years. These lyrics search for a change for the better. “Singing/Woah to shameless me/Maybe once for history we can all change to be/The end of misery.” The end of misery is the theme for this song.

These lyrics explain how things have been going on for years now. “Maybe once for history we can all change to be/Smokeless nights with shadowed tears/It's been like this for several years/And I was almost done/Before it had begun”

Stasis was the first song Twinspan wrote after getting back together from a lengthy hiatus. They just felt Stasis was a strong first single which is why they shot a music video for the song. Stasis was the first single they made.


Proclamation Emaciation is lead by a fiery lead guitar. Proclamation Emaciation deals with mental abuse, corruption, and self-destruction. You can feel the angsty vocals.

You can also feel the anger within their lyrics. These lyrics explain that you can’t fix something once you’ve destroyed it. “You can’t diffuse a bomb/That’s already gone off/You can’t prepare something that you’ve destroyed” No coincidence here.


Satyrs on Saturn is led by high energy sound and hard metalcore. You can feel the angsty vocals. This song also could have been a single as well.

Prelude to the Autopsy of a Smooth Brained Vertebrate opens up with a few old fashion bells which quickly transition into a treble reduced and distorted electronic soundscape. Notice how those synths are very much distorted. Various vocals samples can be heard towards the very end.

I rate this album 4/5****!
