MP3s: Holy Fuck: Various Tracks

"Holy fuck, our hard drive crashed!" said Holy Fuck, when they lost what band member Brian Borcherdt, in an email to Pitchfork, called "a good chunk of material" for their follow-up to last year's self-titled debut. But they also added, "Hey, let's put up some live mp3s on our website so people don't have to wait even longer to hear what we've been working on."

The four tracks-- "Safari", "Choppers", "Junglor", and "Chicago Radio Rap Band"-- were all recorded live at radio stations or gigs, and they're all analog electro in the post-rock vein. This stuff would make perfect Megaman-style video game music.

Holy Fuck quickly hopped back on the recording train after their tech troubles and will begin mixing the new record with Broken Social Scene producer Dave Newfeld very soon. They also hope to have an additional recording session next year with Enon drummer Matt Schulz, who Borcherdt said was "recently recruited as one of our few rotating drummers."
