Exclusive Interview: Justin Pierre & Andrew Reiner Of The Rapture Twins

 

With a name like The Rapture Twins, a first single titled “Would You Kindly” [which you can listen to here], and one of two members having a day job at a video game magazine, you might think the rock duo of former Motion City Soundtrack singer, guitarist Justin Pierre and Game Informer Executive Editor Andrew Reiner are just a couple of musically-inclined gamers celebrating their favorite hobby. And you’d be right…but you’d also be wrong. Because as I learned after talking to them about this new group, while their first song was inspired by the BioShock games, it’s not really about BioShock, just as the rest of their songs won’t be about the games, movies, comics, and other bits of pop culture that inspire them.
