Maxim Baldry talks Terra Twin’s “trashy” new EP, mental health and balancing ‘The Rings Of Power’ with music
Terra Twin frontman and The Rings Of Power star Maxim Baldry has spoken to NME about his band’s “muscular, trashy” new EP ‘Static Separation’ and balancing music with his acting life.Baldry, who plays Númenórean warrior Isildur in The Rings Of Power, formed Terra Twin from his bedroom in New Zealand, whilst shooting season one of the Amazon Prime Video fantasy epic back in 2020. The London-based indie quartet (completed by guitarist Lewis Spear, bassist Jonny Thwaites and drummer Alex Wadstein) have today (September 5) shared the EP’s jagged, thumping lead single ‘The Recogniser’ – their first via Leeds-based label Dance To The Radio.“We wanted to elevate our sound and make it a bit more muscular”, Baldry told NME of ‘Static Separation’, which is due out in February 2025.
