The Volta Sound
Cleveland, Ohio's The Volta Sound's drew considerable praise for their mind blowing live performances and two full-length releases on Orange Sky Records as well as a sparkling EP and a limited edition rarities compilation on Elephant Stone. Fred Mills of Magnet wrote: "Taut dynamics, stoned vocals and fluid organ/fretboard drone locate the Volta Sound in the vicinity of the Warlocks or Brian Jonestown Massacre. Such comparisons are further illuminated on the five-song Fast Light With Radio Signal, thanks to a hypnotic live reprisal of the first album's "Zen Is Everywhere" and the fuzztone-draped space rock of "Sleepy Crunchy." It's the proverbial "take a trip with us" rock aesthetic, one clearly suggested when, on The Yin And The Yang, the sound of a NASA countdown slowly becomes audible deep in the mix. Yes, gentlemen, we do have liftoff." Their release on Orange Sky, Dandelion Wine, found the group in a more mellow '60s sunshine pop vein somewhere in-between prime time Donovan and The Velvet's circa Loaded. The makeup of The Volta Sound has changed over the years.
