“Holy Fawn build giant, cresting waves of uplifting brutality, and they do it without really sounding like anyone else” – Stereogum
“…a high-water mark for music that combines the skyscraping atmospheres of post-rock with the heavy breadth of textured metal.” – Revolver
“Holy Fawn traverse quite a bit of sonic territory… washes of guitar and walls of feedback build to vicious mid-section with crushing drums..” – Consequence
Holy Fawn, whose eagerly-awaited new album, Dimensional Bleed arrives Sept. 9 via Wax Bodega, have released a cinematic video for “Void of Light” (https://youtu.be/zFwd2kIP4aE), with the Chase Warren-directed clip featuring a muted color palette that mimics the imagery around the upcoming release.
“I’m not sure what it is about our nature as musicians but at our core, we love to tinker,” explains Ryan Osterman. “Whenever we get something new, we have to set it up and hit record just to see what happens. For ‘Void of Light’ in particular, it was a new reverb pedal from a company called ‘Dr. Scientist.’ It’s called ‘the atmosphere’ and I feel its name is pretty self-explanatory. This pedal truly felt so expressive and opened up so many creative avenues for us to revisit over and over again. Once it entered the studio, it just didn’t get turned off. ‘The Atmosphere’ really had a tremendous impact on the first half of the song and I’m so thankful this pedal found i’s way to us. It truly is so customizable, down to the finest of details, and it really allowed us to create as musicians. This was definitely the first song we ever played as a group during rehearsal for Dimensional Bleed and it just felt so new and raw. You can just tell when you’re performing something with your friends that it’s resonating and everyone just feels so connected. This is one in particular we’re really excited to play live.”
Holy Fawn previously released a dazzling, sweeping video for “Death Is A Relief” (https://youtu.be/4L5FpH0lRT0), as well as a gritty, black and white clip for “Dimensional Bleed” (https://youtu.be/-CSMM0Id9mw).
