Trystan's Best #26: Holy Fuck - LP

Released: October 22nd, 2007

Much like Robocop or Sam Worthington's character in Terminator: Salvation, Holy Fuck is half human and half electronic. By this I mean their unique and dare I say groundbreaking form of electronica (electronicore?) is made by combining synthesizers and drum machines with bass players and actual drummers. Most of the time this makes for some darkly groovy tunes, and at other times, like on standout track "Lovely Allen", maniacally uplifting euphoria. LP, beyond all the other albums on my list, is far and away the most original sounding album of the decade.
