Holy Fuck – Latin

Frenetic rushes of sonic trickery

The foul mouthed Canadians return with an album benefiting from their extensive tour schedule, adding a melodic edge to their rhymthic onslaught. Playing it low key, they open with a four-minute build up before ‘Red Lights’’ punk funk bass heralds the album start proper.

Recorded live in the studio, the quartet have expanded their tempo and rhythmic portfolio while third track ‘Latin America’ boasts an almost pop chart friendly chorus (minus vocals). Also still in place is their frenetic rushes of sonic trickery, but most notably the band have relaxed a little and even got a little funky.
