Noun - Holy Hell

2010 release from Screaming Females guitarist Marissa Paternoster and her low-profile solo project Noun. On Holy Hell, Marissa dedicates less time to shrieking and soloing, and more to intricate studio work and lower-key instrumentation. Holy Hell, the first official Noun release, incorporates keys, organs, and toned-down guitars and drums. The result is clearly different than Screaming Females: it's mellower, more melodic, and whereas the Screaming Females' songwriting process is a three-way discussion, Marissa writes all of the songs for Noun.
