Hex the patriarchy!


If you've been wishing our modern era of free gender expression would extend itself to our most popular deities, Twin Temple is one step ahead of you (at least on the Satan front). We heard from this devilish doo-wop group last year, with a song from their self-titled debut. Just this month they released a new single: "Satan's A Woman" backed with "I Am A Witch." The album's cover describes these songs as "The diabolical new singles from the wickedest band in the world, presented in monophonic sound for your listening pleasure. Suitable for ritual use."

In the case of "Satan's A Woman," however, the ritual wouldn't involve virgin sacrifice so much as a mean Watusi. This Dame Scratch doesn't need your money or blood because she makes her own and is proud of it! Mama never said there'd be days like this, when the devil comes out as female through the medium of a song you can do The Twist to, but I'm glad they're here.

Twin Temple is on tour right now, so go bow down as low as you can go if they come to a town near you! I have tickets to see them in December and am already breaking in my cloven dance shoes.
