Holtfaction Redefines the Underground: A Raw Collision of Grunge, Goth, and Industrial Rock

Fredericksburg, VA – 2025 — Emerging from the shadows of Virginia’s underground scene, Holtfaction is a sonic force fusing grunge grit, gothic depth, and industrial edge into an electrifying, genre-defying experience. What began as a solitary creative outlet for frontman Evan Love Riot has now evolved into a full-throttle duo with drummer Veda Viral, whose thunderous percussion amplifies the band’s raw emotional voltage.

Holtfaction’s music is a defiant outcry against societal decay, personal demons, and the myth of conformity. 

With unapologetically bold lyrics, haunting melodies, and an explosive live presence, the band delivers what mainstream rock has long been missing—truth, grit, and rebellion.

Their latest single, “Parent”, is now available on all streaming platforms. A searing anthem soaked in corruption, chaos, and occult imagery, it cements Holtfaction as not just a band, but a movement for misfits, outcasts, and seekers of sonic catharsis.

Recent Highlights:
   •    Featured performer at Immortal Forest Festival, Richmond VA (May 2025)
   •    Headlined multiple alternative venues throughout Northern Virginia and D.C.
   •    Garnering a loyal following of goth, industrial, and punk rock fans across the East Coast
