Rocky Votolato

"It seems today that a simple, acoustic guitar-slinging troubadour needs more than a honey-tinged voice and simple accompaniment to make a splash in the music industry. He or she also needs a host of production tricks, a stylist, etc. The incredibly ... More

20 Minute Loop

An Interview

By Jeremy Sampson (12/31/2004)

" Brace yourself: it's the ultimate indie rock cliché! Local band 20 Minute Loop isn't in it for the money or fame. They're in it for the music, man. Yeah, we know -- you've heard this one before. Countless times, we're sure. This time it just might be true. "

By Jeremy Sampson (11/26/2004)

" It's a fine line that exists in music these days between the emotional and the, gulp, pretentious. Add too much feeling to a composition and it seems somehow contrived or impure. Add too little and you're Ashlee Simpson just going through the motions. The Arcade Fire is that rare band which manages to find just the right balance, pouring its soul into its work while somehow keeping two feet planted firmly in meaningful. "

Loud*Live*Local

October 15th to 30th

By matthew thayer (10/15/2004)

" A varied mix of live music leads up to two of San Francisco's biggest holiday's: Halloween and the national elections. Please... party and then vote. On a musical note, I always look forward to FREE shows at Amoeba Records and the Union Square Virgin Megastore. They are quick, easy and cost nothing at all. You will read of many in this and future L*L*L previews. "
