Description:
When Sigur Ros used a teeny tiny piano on a Melbourne tour everyone in the room went ‘nawww, he's playing on a teeny tiny piano!' When Holy Fuck play The Corner, all tiny instruments must be taken seriously. According to Pitchfork Media, ‘The band was formed with the intent of creating the equivalent of modern electronic music without actually using the techniques - looping, splicing, programming and the like - of that music.' This includes using whack instruments, for example, phaser guns. Laugh at Holy Fuck's use of adorable instruments and you never know, they might shoot you with them. - ID
