Holy Holy‘s new single ‘Darwinism‘ is released tomorrow as the first taste of their upcoming second studio album.
European tour dates which include gigs in Leeds and London are also coming up as the duo look to quickly capitalise on the good vibes sent out for the 2015 debut ‘When The Storms Would Come‘ – one of Live4ever’s albums of last year.
“Dawson’s and Redlich’s modern aesthetic, juxtaposed with Carroll’s conventional songwriting, is the fundamental element that makes Holy Holy a vital project,” our review reads.
“With its driving rhythm ‘You Cannot Call For Love Like a Dog‘ will surely get audiences swaying, Carroll’s vocals soar over Dawson’s soundscapes as the latter’s guitar heroics close the track with a tasteful dose of bombast. Further on the syrupy flange of ‘Holy Gin’ drips with psychedelia while Strathie’s dynamic drumming gives the track an underlying dark blues stomp.”
“Album standout ‘Pretty Strays For Hopeless Lovers’ is a glorious 6-minute chug encapsulating everything which makes this record special.”
