Talvez a mais ácida das bandas da nova cena de Austin, é eu sei, Austin tem algo de esquisito mesmo, deve ser a água da cidade, certamente deve ser mais alucinógena do que qualquer lsd que tem por ai, porque simplesmente a quantidade de combos com qualidade absurda que sai daquela terra espanta, sem citar nomes, mesmo porque os amigos do TBTCI já os tem de cor e salteado, o fato é que a Holy Wave pega pesado, aliás pesadíssimo no lisérgia, pode colocar no caldeirão tudo que foi feito nas garagens psicodélicas dos 60´s, acresce ai a familia Spacemen 3, BJM e uma ambientacão shoegazer pra ensurdecer mais ainda.
Resultado e sugestão inicie-se na obra destes psychers diretamente no Evil Hits um apanhado de seus eps, e daí vicie-se, simples assim...
Duas possibilidades, para exatamente aqui, vá até o link do bandcamp do Holy Wave no final da entrevista, comece a ouvir e daí retorne e leia qual é a do Holy Wave, ou pegue uma bebida, ligue o som, e faca tudo isso ao mesmo tempo, o resultado pode surtir mais efeito.
E vem disco novo pela frente....e os caras tocaram no Austin Psych Festival deste ano, é basicamente assim, essencial para aficcionados.
***** Interview with Holy Wave *****
Q. When did Holy Wave starts, tell us about the history...
Holy Wave started in late 2008. We had all been in bands together for a few years at that point, since we were teenagers. We decided to move from El Paso to Austin and make this band our main priority.
Q: Who are your influences?
We all have various influences. I think some of them are pretty obvious in the music. We're constantly falling in love with music so it tends to change.
Q. Made a list of 5 albuns of all time…
At the moment (in no order): Abbey Road-the Beatles, Kaya- Bob Marley and the Wailers, Loveless- My Bloody Valentine, Self Titled- The Doors, Spectrum- Sonic Boom.
Q. How do you fell playing alive?
Playing live is an interesting experience. I like being a part of creating the music that is connecting everyone at the show.
Q. How do you describe Holy Wave sounds?
I always have a very difficult time describing our sound. Basically we do all of our favorite things in music our way.
Q: Tell us about the process of recording the songs
The process of recording the songs can be pretty long. We usually demo songs at our home studio as the songs develop. Sometimes those recordings are the best because we captured a moment, and those are released. If not, then we do it again and again... and again.
Q. Which new bands do you recommended??
Hidden Ritual out of Austin TX, they are working on their first record and I'm excited for it.
Q: Which bands you love to made a cover version?
We've done a David Bowie cover set for the past 3 years for a friend's birthday. He is an amazing songwriter.
Q: What´s the plans for future....
Our new record is nearly complete, so that's the first priority. We'll be touring around the States in April-May, about half of the dates with Goat, which we are pretty stoked about.
Q: Any parting words?
Lyoto Machida rules.
