Brian Borcherdt and Graham Walsh on two decades of accidental decisions and deliberate noise Transmission 335: Interview with Holy Fuck Holy Fuck is a Canadian band from Toronto, active since 2004, built around a practical refusal: making music with electronic sounds without using laptops, programmed backing tracks, or the standard techniques of electronic production. Brian Borcherdt and Graham Walsh, who form the band's core, developed this approach separately before meeting; both were working with Casios, modified record players, and guitar pedals, looking for situations where controlling every parameter of the result was not possible.
