"Holy Fuck are a four-piece improv band built on strange electronics, pulsing bass and full-steam drumming. Comprised of past and present members of By Divine Right and King Cobb Steelie, Holy Fuck made good on their name and pedigree with a danceable, alcohol-fuelled blow-out. Driving like Trans Am and littered with chipmunk vocal manipulations and analog tape trickery. No laptop’s, no samplers, no synths. The electronic sound of Holy Fuck is improvised entirely with toy keyboards, live drums, live bass guitar, and a myriad of other toy gadgets your little brother used to play with…oh yeah… and a 35mm film synchronizer. In only a years time Toronto’s Holy Fuck have made numerous live recordings and played a multitude of festivals including CMJ, SXSW, Montreal Jazz Festival, NXNE, CMW, Halifax Pop Explosion, Pop Montreal, and most recently Coachella as backing band for acclaimed Brooklyn hip hop artist Beans."
