Our fab guest blogger, Jordon Chiarelli, shares his thoughts on the brand new album. Holy Fuck’s Brian Borcherdt and his bandmate Graham Walsh, have received massive critical success without a concrete line-up since their inception in 2004. But the two may have a good thing going with bassist Matt McQuaid and drummer Matt Schultz (who have been around longer than most), in terms of the band’s third LP, Latin. The returning foursome and their instrumental melodies sound incredibly tight. Holy Fuck’s philosophy of “anything goes” still holds true on their latest release. “Red Lights”, which follows the album’s climactic & ambient opening track, is one of the groovier segments. The strongest tune, “Pigs”, is harder than many other selections on the record, while “Stilettos” & “Positive Ghosts” are definite high points as well. Holy Fuck delivers with an eclectic and stylish affair which should have your skull pulsating with the proper headphones. Don’t fix it if it ain’t broke.
We’re giving away tix to catch Holy Fuck in NYC!
