"The far-flung members of the group met up in 2022 "inside a rural Nova Scotia village hall" where they lived and recorded together in relative isolation. As usual, they played as much of everything you hear live, and, unlike previous albums, Event Beat features no guest vocalists. Brian Borcherdt says the vibe of this album is running "towards something that is beyond personal control, either at the mercy of some bigger system or some unspoken will.""
"The first single from the album is "Evie," which finds their brand of dubby post-punk funk in fine form. You can watch the video, shot live in the studio and directed by Colin Medley, below. Holy Fuck have also announced a world tour, including North America this spring with singer, songwriter and snowboarder Gus Englehorn, and then the UK and Europe this fall."
Holy Fuck will release Event Beat, their sixth album, on March 27 via Satellite Services. The group lived and recorded together in 2022 inside a rural Nova Scotia village hall, working in relative isolation and playing most parts live. Event Beat contains no guest vocalists and channels a vibe running 'towards something that is beyond personal control, either at the mercy of some bigger system or some unspoken will.' The first single, 'Evie,' showcases dubby post-punk funk with a live-in-studio video directed by Colin Medley. A world tour accompanies the release, with North American spring dates featuring Gus Englehorn and UK/Europe dates in fall.
