Rocky Votolato: Gigs

Is this the brother of Cody Votolato of The Blood Brothers???

Re: Rocky Votolato: Gigs

Sure is.

It's strange, Rocky is at one end of the rock spectrum, and his older brother is pretty much at the other.

But his album is called 'Suicide Medicine' for chrissakes - bet that took aaaages to think up, eh?

From the title, it sounds like this is more of the same white boy 'look, I've grazed my knee, my girl has left me and my mom never taught me to read' faux-angst

Yeesh

Re: Rocky Votolato: Gigs

It's quite good, actually.
His work with Immense, on their last album, is great.
Get it if you like YMSS etc.

Hmm...it's OK...nothing I'd rush out to buy, though.

Methinks I'll take his overly-camp, mental-as-fuck brother's next album instead. When is 'Crimes' out, anyway?

Re: Rocky Votolato: Gigs

actually... rocky is older than cody (of the blood brothers) by a good margin (i grew up with the guys from blood brothers). also, they have another brother (the oldest) named sonny votolato, who is in a band called bugs in amber (rudy, the drummer for waxwing & gatsby's american dream, also plays with this band). yeah.
