Twisted Teens’ Share “Stalks” Official Video
Last month, Sub Pop shared details on behalf of Twisted Teens new album The Holy Cross Tigers set for worldwide release on Friday, November 6th. Today, you can watch a new, wonderfully weird official video for the ribald album opener, “Stalks,” starring the band and directed by Mama Hot Dog. Watch here.
The Holy Cross Tigers is Twisted Teens’ third album of 2026, following the acclaimed albums Blame the Clown (released on Chain Smoking Records in January) and Florida Water Blues (released on Going Underground in North America in July, and the rest of the world through Sub Pop in September).
Twisted Teens will resume their 2026 tour dates beginning on November 3rd in New York, with a sold-out, headlining show at The Bowery Ballroom. The band will then join their recent tourmates Kurt Vile & The Violators on their headlining run, beginning Wednesday, November 4th in Buffalo, NY, at Asbury Hall and running through Tuesday, November 24th in Baltimore, MD, at Ottobar.
Twisted Teens will also close out 2026 with a tour of Australia beginning Friday, December 11th, in Melbourne at Howler and ending Wednesday, December 16th, in Sydney with a sold-out show at Oxford Art Factory. The band’s December 13th date in Melbourne has also been upgraded to the larger Corner Hotel. Tickets for these shows are on sale now.

Twisted Teens’ The Holy Cross Tigers is now available for preorder on CD/LP/CS/Digitally from Sub Pop. LP purchases in North America from the Sub Pop Mega Mart, in the EU/UK from MegaMart Europe, at the band’s live shows and from your local record store will receive the limited Loser Edition on Maroon vinyl. There is also a Bandcamp exclusive on Opaque Maroon w/Black Swirl vinyl (all vinyl colors whilst stock lasts!). Three new T-shirt designs (2 for US, 1 for EU/UK) are also available.
Pitchfork included the band in its “34 Most Anticipated Albums of Fall 2026” feature, and said, “Focusing on Twisted Teens’ relentless output in 2026 misses the point. Instead, track the fluidity of their strut through garage rock, country, and traditional folk; on The Holy Cross Tigers, that effortless sway of hypnotic steel guitar over shuffling drums presents like an old jukebox standard that you’re hearing for the first time. Place your trust in that timelessness. Caspian Halliwell and RJ Santos steer their New Orleans band like a pontoon boat: balanced, unadorned, and old-school in that it reinforces only the bare-bones necessities required for a good time.”
