What People Are Saying
Second Language seamlessly transgresses from one rock genre to another, serving up bite-sized pieces of the larger underground musical landscape and cultural zeitgeist. They are the Talking Heads one minute, Radiohead the next, and then they're Siouxsie and the Banshees by way of Blur.
— Steven Alan Green
Second Language might be described as the Jefferson Airplane meets Jim Morrison, backed by Talking Heads. Male and female lead vocals intertwine over a thumping beat, with droning guitar and keyboards. Psychedelic, man! And, in fact, pretty entertaining. The singers are attractive, and reasonably facile at what they do, and there’s plenty of contrast between the gloomy male vocals and the woman’s; the sound alternates between Grace Slick and what you’d expect to be wailed from a minaret at sunset than from a stage at Sunset and Wilcox.
— LA Times
Second Language opened last Thursday's evening at the Lingerie with another homage to the '60s, albeit with a bit more contempo flavor of the X-Talking Heads style. Lead vocalist Toni Zeto most strongly suggests Grace Slick's aggressive style, from the "Old' days, and the abundant use of exotic and quirky percussion, combined with an '80s keyboards style makes for an inventive, and quite distinctive, melange of textures.
