"Unholy Four's debut 7" revives rock and roll's rough edge, blending 70s riffs with punk rock. The style is raw and uncompromising, and the lyrics are punishing. The download includes a bonus track not available on the vinyl release. The 7" comes printed on luscious, marble grey vinyl." - Record Theory
Taking their name from an early 60's Philadelphia gang, The Unholy Four are softspoken dirtbags from Charlottesville, VA hell bent on bringing some grit and grime back to rock-n-roll. The songs are based on real life experiences - the kind that start with a can of beer and end up where ever you awake. Without pomp or put-ons, they slink onstage and crush it with thunderous volume and vintage amplifiers, deriving primal joy from the influences of Motorhead, Rocket From The Crypt, the Stones, Animals, and Turbonegro. The Unholy Four stick to straight forward, no frills rock-n-roll the only way they know how to do it. All style, and no class.

How do we rock thee? Let us count the ways. We rock thee to the depth and breadth and height our souls can reach, when feeling out of sight For the ends of Being and ideal Grace. We rock thee to the level of everyday's Most quiet need, by sun and candle-light. We rock thee freely, as men strive for Right; We rock thee purely, as they turn from Praise. We rock thee with a passion put to use In our old griefs, and with our childhoods' faith. We rock thee with a beat we seemed to lose With our lost picks, --- we rock thee with the breath, Smiles, tears, of all our lives! --- and, if God choose, We shall but rock thee better after death.
