George Lewis Jnr aka TWIN SHADOW's debut album is as intriguing as his upbringing. The troubled son of a hairdresser and a teacher ‘who lived many lives' (semi-pro footballer, massage therapist, film maker and other things we'll tell you about when you're older), Lewis Jnr was born in the Dominican Republic and grew up in Florida. Forget is the sepia-tinged homage to his childhood, recalling moments from his youth in moods alternately sweet and sinister, but always compelling. Chris Taylor (Grizzly Bear) produced the album and he does a fine job of making Forget''s 80s-tinged electro-pop sound altogether new. Grab a partner and pretend it's your school formal: Twin Shadow's slinky tunes and deep, velvety voice are made for this.
