Our Take

Album Review: The Holy Modal Rounders - Indian War Whoopin'

Get ready to buckle up, chums, because the Holy Modal Rounders are back with their latest offering, "Indian War Whoopin'." This album is a wild ride through the wacky and whimsical world of British English folk music, with a healthy dose of quirkiness and irreverence thrown in for good measure.

From the moment you press play, you're greeted with a cacophony of twangy guitars, stomping rhythms, and warbling vocals that transport you straight to a pub in the heart of the English countryside. The Rounders' signature blend of traditional folk tunes and off-kilter lyrics makes for a truly unique listening experience that is sure to leave you scratching your head and tapping your toes in equal measure.

Standout tracks include the rollicking "Jolly Roving Tar," which sees the band at their most raucous and rowdy, and the hauntingly beautiful "Young Man Who Wouldn't Raise Corn," a touching ballad that showcases the Rounders' more tender side.

Overall, "Indian War Whoopin'" is a rollicking good time that will have you laughing, crying, and scratching your head in equal measure. So, grab a pint, settle in, and prepare to be enchanted by the musical madness of the Holy Modal Rounders. Cheers!

About the artist

Holy Modal Rounders

Hailing from the vibrant folk scene of 1960s Greenwich Village, Holy Modal Rounders are a duo like no other. Comprised of Steve Weber and Peter Stampfel, these quirky troubadours have been pushing boundaries and defying genres for over five decades. Their music can best be described as a melting pot of influences, blending elements of traditional folk, psychedelic rock, and avant-garde experimentation. With their whimsical lyrics, unconventional song structures, and eclectic instrumentation (which often includes banjos, fiddles, and even toy instruments), Holy Modal Rounders have carved out a unique niche in the music world. Their cult following adores them for their irreverent humour, boundary-pushing creativity, and infectious energy. But make no mistake, behind the jests and jesters lies a deep well of musical talent and innovation. Holy Modal Rounders' influence can be heard in a wide range of artists, from The Grateful Dead to Violent Femmes to The Flaming Lips. They may be considered outsiders in the mainstream music world, but their impact on the underground and alternative scenes cannot be overstated. In a music industry that often favours conformity over creativity, Holy Modal Rounders stand out as true originals. With their unconventional approach to music-making and their refusal to play by the rules, they continue to inspire generations of musicians and fans alike. So next time you find yourself in need of a musical adventure, look no further than Holy Modal Rounders.
