Mason Hill “Twisted” New Single & Video Out Now

22 February 2026 rocknews

Mason Hill have unleashed their new single “Twisted”, a heavy, riff-driven anthem about the addictive pull of a toxic relationship that’s “so wrong that it’s right”. The track is out now and comes with an official video capturing the band’s raw energy.

“‘Twisted’ started with James’ straight-killer riff that you hear at the start of the track, and I wanted to write something that would really do it justice,” says the band. “The song is about a relationship that’s so wrong that it’s right – toxic love that’s so addictive, you can never leave it. It’s a mix of grit and melody, a poppy chorus and a balls-to-the-wall breakdown section. 10/10 would recommend to a friend.”

New vocalist Tom Ward is understandably enthusiastic about the new music: “I’m absolutely made up that we can finally get another track out there and ‘Twisted’ is a band favourite for sure – with plenty of time for fans to get learning those lyrics before our UK tour kicks off in March!”

‘Twisted’ sees Mason Hill take a step towards a darker, heavier sound. Huge riffs and thundering drums propel the song whilst keeping the melodies forefront, capped by a stand-out vocal performance by Ward that shifts from emotive whisper to arena-rattling power in a heartbeat.

The singles ‘Twisted’ and its predecessor ‘Remember’ are just the first taste of the band’s second album, all of which has now been recorded under the watchful eyes and ears of producer Dan Weller (Enter Shikari, Bury Tomorrow, Those Damn Crows).

Four years after Against the Wall made such an impact, Mason Hill is re-entering the fray with renewed intent, showcasing a freshly updated sound and presentation.

This line-up feels like a huge step forward for the Glasgow-based band. While the core of Mason Hill is the same as the band that made Against The Wall – James Bird (guitar), Marc Montgomery (guitar), Matt Ward (bass) and Craig McFetridge (drums) – their new music marks the introduction of new singer Tom Ward, whose versatile voice offers new dimensions to Mason Hill’s signature sound.

Mason Hill have been no strangers to adversity. They’ve endured false starts, botched record deals and a six-year gap between 2015’s eponymous debut EP and the release of Against the Wall. Even the latter landed during the height of the Covid pandemic, meaning the band weren’t initially able to tour in support of it. The departure of former singer Scott Taylor at the end of 2023 was just the latest obstacle they had to overcome.

“There have been times over the years when we weren’t even sure we’d be able to keep on being a band,” says James. “Even just before Tom came in, we were so close to saying, ‘Well, we tried, but let’s call it a day.’ But there’s a stubbornness and determination and passion in us that has kept us going. The new music was obviously still Mason Hill, but we didn’t want it to be a copy of the first album. When Tom put his voice to some of the demos we’d sent, that was when we knew this could work.”

“It feels like a turning point,” says Tom of this new chapter. “We’re super-hungry for it.”

“All the good stuff and the bad stuff, I’m glad it happened in a sense,” adds James. “Because without it we wouldn’t be in this place we’re in right now, talking about new songs, which I couldn’t be more excited about. We’re so ready to get back out there. This is who we are now. This is Mason Hill.”
