Freaks Of Nurture

Originally formed in El Paso, Texas, Holy Wave carefully combines fluid forms of sacred surf sounds, droning riffs, and group vocals that haunt and harmonize in equal measure. The band made the move to Austin and released ''Knife Hits,'' ''The Evil Has Landed,'' and ''Evil Hits,'' a compilation featuring select tracks from the band's prior releases. The band released their second LP, ''Relax,''in 2014 on Austin Psych Fest's Reverberation Appreciation Society label and Burger Records.''Relax'' saw the band expanding both their sound and their membership, recording for the first time as a five-piece.
