Holy Profane - Jettison Yr Dreams
$8.00
2021's Jettison Yr Dreams finds Holy Profane's Anthony Zito stripping his sound back to vocals and acoustic guitar, allowing his vivid storytelling and lyricism to take center stage. Recorded at home over the course of 2020, the album is a far cry from the cliched "pandemic record." Instead, Zito connects the dots between childhood memories and present-day experience, explores the duality of being an artist and a worker, and seeks to find meaning and direction in a late-capitalist hellscape of corrupt local officials, music scene social politics, and pervasive targeted advertising. Working in the tradition of artists such as Jeff Mangum, Conor Oberst, and the Mountain Goats, Zito forges his own path forward when folk-punk idealism fails to live up to its promises.
Recorded at Ghost House during the pandemic summer of 2020
