SotoSoundz - Octopus Head
so-to-soundz (n) a phantasmagoria of garage psychedelia.
8 tentacles of wonder from the barrel of a shooting star.

Karen Sotomayor - everything except drums E.J. Trbovic - drums
SotoSoundz first album, Octopus Head, sits snugly in that enviable echo chamber where Roy Orbison meets Grace Slick at a Kings of Leon show and bumps into The Doors on the waaay out.
This is why BMG are giving us free copies of all the old Jefferson Airplane stuff because they think linking to our website will boost their sales.
Octopus Head snowballs with generous reviews, video and airplay - what with a 2 hour radio special on the band in Brazil and that - but we are greedy for more of course - so contact us for mp3/video for streaming, interviews, or other promo opps.

Reviews
Octopus Head…what is the first thing that comes into your mind when you hear that for a name of an album?I was not too sure at first but it all became quite clear when I put the CD on and looked at the musician’s credits. Karen Sotomayor is a one-woman show on her new release Octopus Head. She sounds like Grace Slick gone wild, as if she quit the Jefferson Airplane and ran off and joined a metal band, if you can picture that. Sotomayor has a powerful vocal delivery and plays the guitar as well as any of her male counterparts. The music is a head bangin’ mixture of old school and modern psychedelic sounds. “You've Got That Somethin' That I Want” had me singing right along on the second spin. The guitar work is drenched in feedback and sweat and Sotomayor’s voice makes the track whole, complementing the kick ass sounds of her six-string. There is no coincidence that “The Spell You're Under” is simply bewitching, once again highlighting the around talent that this woman commands while performing. What a great way to close the curtain on some amazing performances for this artist. There is a real good vibe that runs through this entire CD, I really liked it. This music rocks, it is sexy and I want to keep playing it, which is the whole ball of wax when it comes to good rock music for this listener. © Keith "MuzikMan" Hannaleck-http://www.muzikreviews.com
Wow, garage rock in the real meaning of the phrase. There are heavy guitars, chunking between chords, what sounds like a cheesy Farfisa organ, drums mashing out a simple beat, everything sounding as if it were on the verge of making a mistake or missing a beat. And I can't help but think of velour pants, hookah pipes, black-light posters, and a dense cloud of incense floating around the room. The fact that Karen Sotomayor is pretty much doing everything by herself makes this disc, well, outstanding I say. "Do I?" evokes Grace Slick in her early days, when rabbits were running around, yet it is Sotomayor whose voice is deep and seductive here. "That's Called Life" reminds me of the Ramones in the way the verses charge out while the simple three-chord repetition hammers away. But it's the opening cut, "Burnin' With Desire," that I keep coming back to. It's raw, loud. I'm glad I heard this disc today. By: Bill Ribas http://nyrock.com/streetbeat/2005/0305.asp#twelve
