Creepy, spooky, fun and with great musicianship to spare, local five-piece the F Holes deliver 12 tracks to get you groovin’. From the hilarious wordplay of Even Stevens to the slow croon of Cool Winter Nights, the disc has Tom Waits, Jr. musically written all over it in all the right ways. Recorded and mixed at Private Ear Studios and produced by Jaxon Haldane, the band and Neil Cameron (who also engineered), Angel in the Corner has a slick charm that works well with the ramshackle tunes the band has perfected live. Album closer Once and For All holds the gravelliest of vocals and gives each musician a little bit of room to shine (especially the horn section) - perfectly summing up the record.
