Adored by squarely configured parents as much as their rebellious teenage offspring Holy Fuck have made a name for themselves with their anything-goes stage shows. As much as they depend on the machines to produce their all-encompassing take on electronica they have been known to let the machines take over. Or not, when a full albums worth of material went kaput after the hard drive was involved in a fatal smash. Rather than get glum about this turn of events Brian Borcherdt, Graham Walsh, Mike Bigelow, Loel Campbell, Kevin Lynn, Glenn Milchem, Robbie Kuster and Matt Schulz shrugged their shoulders and made hay. The rich harvest is there for all to see on the bands sophomore album ‘LP’. Pinch yourself while you absorb the otherworldliness of ‘Lovely Allen’, this is surely not a record made by earthlings as it carves sonic sculptures the likes of which are beyond mere mortals. This is alien bossa nova nourishment for both your cardiovascular and sound systems. KD
