Votolato, Rocky
Suicide Medicine
Rocky Votolato's third solo full-length, Suicide Medicine is a stripped down and sparse masterpiece -- Rocky's voice
soars across dark lyrical musings on family, love, music, and the conflicts that arise from his commitment to all three.
Suicide Medicine shares commonalities with the new batch of twenty-something singer-songwriters of Rocky's genre, but
Rocky surpasses them by channeling early Mark Eitzel, Richard Buckner, and the stripped down, poetic storytelling of
Steve Earle and Joe Henry. Recorded and produced by Death Cab For Cutie's Chris Walla, Suicide Medicine's elegant
pathos, compelling nature, and beauty intertwine somber ballads, acoustic laments, and driven rock, as Rocky's rich and
unmistakable voice guides and caresses twelve new tracks.
