Holy Wire - Phantom Nihilism
Blessed be Austin, the glacial capital of electropop that challenges krautrock to a duel: she wins, always, and Holy Wire is here to prove it with a daring and consensus-winning track, because you will agree with the old scribe that here we are in front of the purity that cannot be resisted, we become obedient with complacency, joy, chewing on this song as a due act. The guitars serve to remind us of the minimalism of the instrument at the dawn of Post-Punk, but it is the electronic base that hovers, conquers, as if it were a woman insensitive to provocations, with the task of bringing its own beauty (the melodic/rhythmic line) inside our inebriated gazes. So it ends up that listening to this track becomes a journey through time that makes it impossible to forget: it is a musical bridge that allows us to celebrate itself without possibility of denial. Clamorously intriguing.
