Holy Red WagonΒ is a world to get lost in. Across nine elastic tracks, meticulously channeled freak-folk influence twists its way into Bruiser and Bicycle’s progressive rock-skewed artpop.

Replete with rich imagery and burning affirmations for life, the Albany, NY group’s exploratory writing takes the form of grandiose song structures, call-and-response passages, and confrontations with the unfamiliar. Lead single β€œ1000 Engines”, an explosive and frenetic introduction toΒ Holy Red Wagon, lurches between genre spectrums on a dime, coalescing somewhere between jangle rock and experimental pop.

Flashes of psychedelia find home onΒ Holy Red WagonΒ too, as heard in the various synths and atmospherics in the frenzied second single β€œSuperdealer”, the first song written for the album. One of the shorter works on the record, the song about desire features an unforgettable, extended bridge that captures the pop aptitude of Bruiser and Bicycle, as well as the spirit ofΒ Holy Red WagonΒ itself.

While the chaos that jumps out fromΒ Holy Red Wagon seems at first listen to be its salient feature, it’s the contrasts and juxtapositions of style and sound that are its beating heartβ€”ostensible chaos revealing more and more of its order with each successive listen.
