Although I don't remember exactly how I stumbled upon them, New York's Holy Hail are a current obsession. Combining the raw dance power of ESG with sexy, dual boy/girl falsetto refrains a la contemporary NYC duo Free Blood, these guys nail the hammer on the head. Groovy bass lines, timbale rolls, punk energy, and a well studied look at dance music's varied roots all denote what I hear in their music. They'll be releasing a new album, Independent Pleasure Club through Kanine Records on November 11th. They've got a few new songs, "Independent Self Devotion" and "Cheery Street," streaming on their myspace.
