Alt-rock trailblazers Nova Twins have unveiled details of their highly anticipated third studio album, “Parasites & Butterflies”, set for release on August 29th, 2025, via Marshall Records.
Alongside the album announcement, the duo has dropped their electrifying new single, “Soprano”, and revealed a massive EU headline tour for September and October 2025.
The album, recorded in Vermont, USA, with legendary producer Rich Costey (Foo Fighters, Muse, Deftones, Sam Fender), is a bold exploration of contrasts – chaos and beauty – blending raw intensity with their signature boundary-pushing creativity.
Speaking on the album, Amy Love and Georgia South said: “‘Parasites & Butterflies’ is about the bridge between chaos and beauty, embracing and accepting both sides. ‘Supernova’ was about being superhuman in a time when we needed to be. With ‘Parasites & Butterflies’, we wanted to showcase something deeply human: how vulnerability can be as empowering as it is revealing in its honesty. By playing with opposites, light and shade, you can feel a contrast throughout the album. You’ll find songs that make you want to dance, cry, self-reflect, or even escape. Life is a constant balancing act, but the thrill of the unknown is what makes us feel truly alive”.
The album’s thunderous new single, “Soprano”, is out now. A fierce anthem of empowerment, the track blends R&B influences with driving basslines, celebrating individuality and unity. The duo explains: “‘Soprano’ is a celebration of the power of women, especially when we unite. The industry often pits women against each other, and women’s voices are silenced worldwide. But we are still shouting from the rooftops! This song aims to empower, encourage connection, and promote friendship, spreading ‘boss energy’ and lifting each other up”.

Over the last few weeks, Nova Twins have showcased their indelible live prowess at the 2025 MOBO Awards, incited mosh pit chaos at a sold-out OMEARA in London (raising over £32K for WARCHILD in the process), and performed “Monsters” live on The Jonathan Ross Show on ITV1.
Since bursting out of the independent UK scene, the Mercury Music Prize and two-time BRIT Award nominees have rewritten the rulebook of what a modern rock band can achieve. They’ve dominated iconic festivals from Glastonbury to Summer Sonic, shared stages with legends like Foo Fighters, Muse, and Bring Me The Horizon, and drawn praise from global icons like Rage Against The Machine’s Tom Morello, who calls them “an incredible band, ,and Elton John, who describes them as “phenomenal”.
The duo’s acclaim spans both their music and their cultural impact. They’ve graced the covers of Kerrang!, NME, UPSET, Alternative Press, and Rock Sound, and won prestigious awards at the Music Week Women in Music Awards, AIM Awards, Kerrang! Awards, and the Nordoff & Robbins O2 Silver Clef Awards. In 2022, their Mercury Music Prize nomination marked a historic milestone as the first Black rock band to be shortlisted.
Beyond music, Nova Twins’ Voices For The Unheard initiative amplifies underrepresented artists in the alternative sphere while supporting vital causes like The Black Curriculum. They also spearheaded the introduction of the Alternative category at the MOBO Awards in 2022 and established a Creative Musicianship Scholarship at ICMP to champion future generations of diverse talent.
