Concert notes: Holy Fuck
November 30, 2007 
[Middle East Upstairs, Cambridge, MA; November 29, 2007]
Holy Fuck lived up to their name at their show last night. Their music is like the bastard lovechild of Battles and Dan Deacon – while less virtuosic than the former and less straight-out batshit than the latter, they possess a tremendous anarcho-punk energy. And they were clearly really, really having fun onstage. Plus they were handing out free 7″ singles – a split disc, with a Celebration remix of their song “Frenchy’s” on one side, and their remix of a Celebration song on the other. If you’re not lucky enough to catch their act and pick up your own copy of the vinyl at one of their shows, you can download both MP3s here.

Anyone have the Celebration / Holy Fuck split 7″ mp3s around anymore? I don’t know how I spaced on it until now, and the website doesn’t work anymore…
