Holy Holy release their debut album, 'When The Storms Would Come'. Holy Holy's sound is tinged with the spirit of the classic rock that has shaped their musical sensibilities - it's pretty hard to miss the Neil Young-esque nuances throughout, or the Pink Floyd-flavoured grit in those ragged melodies. The fevered 'A Heroine' is brimming with nostalgic vintage energy, constructed around flawlessly executed '70s-style guitar lines and a tinny, frenetic climbing melody. This is a rumble-tumble, fuzzed-out rock affair, complete with an indulgent closing axe shred that comes across almost as a deliberate nod to the days of old, poured straight into a two-inch tape recorder and expertly configured to 16-tracks. In fact, a majority of the album's elements were recorded directly to tape, providing 'When The Storms Would Come' with an overriding warmth and authenticity; it's all in the weighty, bottom-end-heavy quality that belies Holy Holy's breezy arrangements, crisp guitar tones and dense rhythms.
