Twin Temple, the musical duo comprising married couple Alexandra and Zachary James, make Satanic doo-wop. That's their brand. There's no missing it. They have songs like "Let's Have A Satanic Orgy" and "Lucifer, My Love" and "Burn Your Bible" and "Sex Magick," all of which sound like authentic '60s doo-wop songs, except they're about worshipping Satan. I don't know how you book them without understanding their whole deal, but apparently someone got confused.
Twin Temple were set to open two shows for the prolific outlaw country traditionalist Charley Crockett next week, but according to a statement from the duo Wednesday, Crockett dropped them from those gigs due to their Satanic imagery. "We are sorry to everyone who was planning to see us," they wrote. "We're grateful for your support, not only of Twin Temple, but more importantly of artistic freedom. HAIL SATAN!"
Jack White noticed. White, whose rad new album Frozen Charlotte is out today, took to Instagram a few minutes ago with a show offer. "Twin Temple, Would you like to open my show in L.A. on September 29th at the Hollywood Palladium?" he wrote. "Let me know. Get in front of me Satan!" We love a good callback, don't we, folks?
