Almost exactly 19 years ago, heavy-hearted Scottish indie rockers the Twilight Sad became a Stereogum Band To Watch. All these years later, the Twilight Sad are still going. These days, they’re probably best-known as the permanent opening act for the Cure. Anytime the Cure announce a new tour, you can be pretty sure that the Twilight Sad will join them. Cure frontman Robert Smith is a big Twilight Sad fan and supporter who’s called them his favorite band and who covered their song “There’s A Girl In The Corner” a decade ago. Now, the Twilight Sad are back with their first single in six years, and it features Robert Smith on guitar.
