Art-Punk duo Disaster Artist brings Hardcore to High Res
with Outer Marker Records
July 2023... Twin-Headed Dragon, Disaster Artist’s debut on Outer Marker Records, delivers proof positive that less is often more. Featuring identical twins Jo and Chris Mayo on drums and bass respectively, Twin-Headed Dragon brings a stripped-down and minimalist approach to the band’s visceral and commanding musical performance, capturing their raw power and unwavering spirit with the depth and intensity befitting their singular sound.

The album is a live, Direct-to-DSD performance that captures the band’s unadulterated essence and irrepressible dynamics in true authenticity and grit. The throbbing rhythms and raw overdriven muscle of their live drums, bass, and vocal melds a no-holds-barred dose of Hardcore with the immediacy and presence of High Resolution audio.
Engineer and Outer Marker Co-Founder Doug Fearn remarked, “People have traditionally viewed High Res and DSD as being appropriate only for classical or jazz recordings. And while it’s certainly well suited for those styles, we see that the clarity of DSD enhances any genre, even high impact music like this. We let our ears decide what sounds best in any recording situation.”

With a genre-bending history that has ranged from acoustic ballads to EDM, the Mayo twins bring a vast palette of musical influences to the table. After working with a cross-section of more traditional bands, the brothers decided in 2022 to return to their punk and artistic roots and established Disaster Artist as a two-piece performance art endeavor. The continually evolving Art Punk duo now arms themselves with bass, drums and microphones to take on the musical battlefield.

“The idea was to capture the moment, to make the listener feel like they were standing right next to the band at a show,” added Jo and Chris Mayo. “The folks at Outer Marker were the perfect team to capture this sound accurately.”
