Editorial Review:
Eerie post-punk blues with a drunken swaggger, lazy rhythms and drawling vocals. It's important to note that the Holy Kiss would not have become the bug in the ear they've managed to develop into if they were just another neo-blues reference-point; they are a far cry from the current set of indie rockers appealing to the Lomax recordings for credibility. They have their own sound of unease--that being their resemblance to the american folk forebearers. It's an intoxication of ansinthe rather than whiskey. It evokes an uncanny and confused imagery, close and foreign at the same time, like a soundtrack to a David Lynch movie. This release captures their rare, out of print, and hard-to-find early recordings.
