**Album:** Fraternal Twin - "Solitude" · **Artist:** Fraternal Twin · **Released:** 8 July 2026

As summer eventually fades into autumn, the soundtrack will require tweaking, which makes the announcement of a new album from **Fraternal Twin** all the more ideal. The band's first album in a decade, entitled *Halo Fell Forever*, arrives September 4, and the lead single, "Solitude," has us anxious for the days to get shorter. Here's Tom Christie on the new song:

*“‘Solitude’ was a bit of a departure for me in terms of songwriting and riff writing, and a breakthrough in arranging. I started writing the song on my friend’s Fender VI and later reinterpreted it on my Jaguar in a completely different tuning. The lyrics are probably my most abstract and stream-of-consciousness, maybe exploring the process of learning to accept uncomfortable emotions like anxiety and dread. The main riff sounds almost psychedelic to me, and the whole song feels like a dream sequence that came from spending too much time alone in my room at night, ruminating and overthinking. Thankfully, I don’t experience that anymore.”*  

It's been 10 years since Fraternal Twin's second album, *Homeworlding*, was released on the heels of their 2015 debut, which likely led those interested to believe Christie had called it quits. But the haunting beauty of this new single makes us glad that wasn't the case. Watch for tour dates with Ditch in August and check out the new video here.

Lyrics to Fraternal Twin's "Solitude":

*Fatal flaw* 
*Solitude, solitude* 
*Takes its toll* 
*All the way*

*Devil down the hall* 
*Is that right, is that right* 
*Paid in full* 
*For the night*

*Sixteen petals* 
*On the moon, on the moon* 
*Dewdrops come undone* 
*With the wax and the wane*

*He’s not looking* 
*For a fight, for a fight* 
*Just the shadow box* 
*In the candlelight*
