Holly goes heavy with the help of the Brokeoffs

I press play. Track one, 'No Help Coming', busts in the front door of my preconceptions. It seems I need to listen to some more. I also need to acquire a corn cob pipe and straw hat before I finish this thing. Holly Golightly & the Brokeoffs have a great, strong start to their 2011 release, No Help Coming. It's chalk full of chase-scene vibrancy.

'The Rest of Your Life', Song two, puts the brakes on. It's well recorded and the structure is nice. Holly's vocals could quite possibly steal your soul. It would surely fit into most Tarantino scenes.

No Help Coming is full of lush soundscapes of layering and all-around amazingly recorded instrumentation. If you're into vintagesque song styling/structure, this is a record for you to experience!


Track six, 'Get Out My House', is high energy, rife with hand clapping, and a sweet anthem to end your parties with!

Every song has a special vibe, and that's what makes No Help Coming onea great album! I'm pretty sure this record was made for moonshiners to listen to, but I certainly do enjoy it. It is a time machine. It took me way back, and I didn't want to return... but all good things come to an end, and here I am, starting it over again.

Holly Golightly & the Brokeoffs have won me over. Don't miss this album, and don't forget yer whisky!
