The Manitoba outfit Holy Void know their way around a psychedelic song you won’t soon forget, where the now 6 piece bring a lot of influences to these complicated 9 tracks.
The dense “Too Close To The Sun” opens with Grant Trippel’s driving guitar and Kyle Loewen’s hard hitting drums making for a warm and adventurous version of psyche-rock, and “Dead” follows with Danny Hacking’s throbbing bass that suits the dreamy meets prog-rock fueled landscape.
“Passing” and “Golden Lights” land in the middle. The former is a calmer moment of mature song craft that’s textured with much beauty, while the latter is a dynamic, instrumental burst of meticulous and melodic alt-rock ideas.
Arriving near the end, “In The End I Am Nothing Anyways” touches on shoegaze, where the rich singing aligns with the harmonic and goth tinted album highlight, and “Salvation” exits with expressive singing amid the precise and memorable instrumentation.
A sonically complex experience, Holy Void’s addition of violin from Mirina Van Der Veen and Rob Knaggs’ cello is used sparingly but effectively via the varied rock affair that leaves a significant impression.
