There are some songs that are just a total experience. “The Land” from Bristol (UK) based dark-fuzz trio Holy Reptile is most certainly one of these songs .

You can listen to “The Land” on Spotify Here and on Apple Music Here

We found ourselves hanging on every word and note of “The Land” Some bands may shy away from darker tones and melodies however, Holy Reptile charges in at full speed and the results are extraordinary.

Recorded with The Wytches‘ Kristian Bell, the band approached recording in a whole new way with this release, choosing to perform the instrumental tracks live, capturing the energy of their live show directly to analogue tape.

While “The Land” is a beautifully crafted melodic gem , what is also impressive is h the track lyrically touches upon elements of southern gothic literature, drawing influence from the likes of Shirley Jackson, Hunter S. Thompson and Kathryn Scanlan.

We hopefully won’t have to wait too long for new music from Holy Reptile as a EP is due later this year .
