Release Notes:
--------
"Time Stands Still" is the first solo offering from ex-Rooney guitarist and
vocalist Taylor Locke and despite it's title, the record is a testament to
creative momentum and personal growth for Locke. While it's Locke's first
release as a true solo artist, it's not your typical singer songwriter fare.
Although Locke's bombastic and dynamic guitar playing has defined him up to this
point, it is his song construction, personal story telling, and boyish tenor
that come to the forefront on "Time Stands Still." His guitar playing, which
falls somewhere between the melodic drama of Brian May and the creative
counterpoint of Joey Santiago, can still be found but it is the quiet moments of
the album in which Locke expresses his thoughts on love, loss, nostalgia, and
ultimately, maturation. "Time Stands Still" is a wonderful blend of high
fidelity sounds and home spun performances that evoke a range of emotions. The
lyrics remain at the forefront of the album, leading the charge for the well
arranged instruments to follow. "I think the term 'singer-songwriter' sadly
evokes a white guy in a coffee shop strumming a fucking g-chord all day,"
explains Locke. "I think this record sounds more like a band recordàthe band
just takes occasional smoke breaks."
