Our digital-only single "County Fair (Part Two)", released by playlouderecordings, is available now for download here , at iTunes and other online digital shops... ::-----------------------------------------:: WORDS :: WORDS :: WORDS :: "Holy Hail's U.S. debut single for Kanine Records, imagines Le Tigre's "Deceptacon" as a Western with hold-ups, whiskey, holy water, trips south of the border, and a sky filled with a big black sun. ... It ends just like it begins, with a mysterious fadeout, as if Cat and her posse are riding off into the sunset. Play this when you're getting ready to go out, even if it's just to the grocery store." - pitchfork :: Click for full review. "...gospel-hop-electro-country...punctuated with the odd piercing scream..." - trash club uk (RIP) "sounds like Glass Candy getting down and dirty with a fractured bass heavy breakneck paced hillbilly disco thang, fuck angular guitar, lets square dance with Beth & Brace & Hannah, throw some neon 80s disco shake-it-beat-it-hop-it L'Trimm shapes for added excitement, so many ace noises it's like being 8 again" - 20jazzfunkgreats "Holy Hail is a party-starting coed dance-pop quartet ... this band has a fun live show and a bunch of smart, thumping tunes to its credit." - time out ny "Make room for these guys between Love Is All and Long Blondes--swooning, lovesick hooks that are nonetheless aloof enough to land the band some gigs at Cake Shop...There's an unexpected bridge with hypnotic guitar pulses, but the bigger surprise is the song's gentle country-western lilt... - pitchfork "like the dirty south of The Gossip mixed with some B-52s madness or maybe even something like the Scissor Sisters mixed with Rilo Kiley. Like if Rilo Kiley wasnt dripping in Omaha infused country and the Scissor Sisters werent totally overproduced Top Of The Pops nonsense. New wave vs. house music for the thinkers." - bigstereo "Holy Hail...are in sum far more than their four charmingly lo-fi parts. Wielding new-wave keys, post-punk bass lines, and occasional hip-hop beats, the quartet masterfully constructs moody backing tracks at once languorous yet spirited, innocent yet sinister under girl/boy vocals." - flavorpill "Crush-worthy singer Cat has reemerged with a new band, Holy Hail, whose demo finds New Wave keyboards driving oddball country-tinged harmonies and an original-sounding brand of freak-hop enhanced by Cat's knowing "Who me?" tease of a voice.” - new york magazine ::-----------------------------------------:: Management, North American Booking & US Press: Matt Cornell Exclusive European and Rest of World Booking: Matt Bates @ Primary Group European Press: Beth @ TOAST Press Legal things and that: Clintons |
