In this letter a new class of twisted strings is presented, with an asymmetry between the holomorphic and antiholomorphic sectors parametrized by an integer N. Their physical content is given by the massless resonances of the closed string plus the mass-level N spectrum of the open string. The appeal of this model is the singling out of the (higher spin) massive levels of string theory together with their self/gauge/gravity interactions. Motivated by the original tree level Kawai-Lewellen-Tye relation for closed strings, its asymmetrically twisted version at four points is conjectured and shown to naturally interpolate with conventional and twisted strings. The resulting four-point amplitudes have a generalized Virasoro-Shapiro dressing factor.
