Twilight as Played by The Twilight Singers is the first album by The Twilight Singers, released by Columbia Records in 2000.[4]

Critical reception[edit]

The Washington Post wrote that "the hushed, claustrophobic approach to soul music recalls the spooky divorce albums by Marvin Gaye (1978's Here, My Dear) and Smokey Robinson (1984's Essar), even if [Greg] Dulli's melodies aren't quite as grabbing."[5]
