Two Lone Swordsmen

The Two Lone Swordsmen are British house DJ and producer Andrew Weatherall and studio engineer Keith Tenniswood. Formed in early 1996, following the dissolution of Weatherall's influential Sabres of Paradise techno act, the Swordsmen have explored a variety of styles, from electro to post punk to IDM. Originally they released material on the label Emissions Audio Output, which Weatherall ran. However, the small nature of the operation limited the duo's success and they have since signed to Warp Records, making them labelmates with acts such as Squarepusher, Autechre and Boards of Canada. The Swordsmen's latest album is 2004's From the Double Gone Chapel, which exhibits more of a rock sound than their previous work. It was released with the single "Sex Beat", a cover of the popular Gun Club song.
