A great live recording of British Occult-Psych-Rock act The Holy Family's performance at Roadburn Festival, 2022. Eight atmospheric tracks (50 mins) in the vein of occult rock with influences of stoner and psychedelia from the 70's, but characterised by their own unique sound.

For those who are unfamiliar with The Holy Family, they are a collective of five musicians who conjure a sound that exhibits an affinity with great experimental totems down the ages, in a manner that is avowedly forward-facing and stamped with their own unique identity.

All involved boast a pre-Holy Family CV to turn clued-in heads: founder David J. Smith (Guapo, The Amal Gamal Ensemble, The Stargazer's Assistant), Kavus Torabi (Miranda Sex Garden, The Utopia Strong, ex-Cardiacs), Sam Warren (Guapo), Joe Lazarus (Twin Atlantic), and on this recording Craig Fortnam, of Cardiacs / North Sea Radio Orchestra fame, who was recruited to grace Emmett Elvin’s piano throne in his absence.

The studio recordings were rearranged and expanded, weaving the pagan, Kosmiche folk atmosphere with heavier, darker, acid-fried motorik touches. Ltd x 300 copies in a 6-panel digipak.
