Electro jam rockers Holy Fuck and smart rapper Shad got together recently to create a way-out project called The Legend Of Cy Borg, the story of tennis star Bjorn Borg’s vigilante brother.

It is… wild.

I wrote about this peculiar project for the Polaris Music Prize website.

You can hear the tracks, watch a related documentary and read the whole story by clicking here.
