about

9 track LP with digital download card, includes lyric sheet. Cover art by Gina Favano.

"In many ways, Come Holy Spirit’s new record, Grand Island ... feels like an expression (of this) open-book ethos: visceral, full of uncontrived emotion, the kind of music that feels both otherworldly and fully earth-bound. It’s kind of punk, kind of psych, kind of avant-garde. Songs are often either building or bubbling over into controlled chaos. Favano’s powerful vocals swell and boom and crack, bringing to mind Diamanda Galas or maybe Screamin’ Jay Hawkins. But sometimes, like in the aptly titled closer “Benediction,” they sooth. This is music you can dance to. It’s also music you can cry to." ...
"The members manage to juggle potentially tricky sonic power dynamics, and the instrumentation is alternately primal, and complex and full." ...

Margaret Welsch, Pgh City Paper.

CHS from Pgh is immediately heavy, creepy, innovative, and inspiring ... " Greg Harvester, MRR. ... more
