Back
home from their coast-to-coast U.S. fall tour, an exceptional performance with
Nic Harcourt live on KCRW and their packed CMJ showcase, Rockfour will breaking
in AnovA Music’s new recording studio and doing the fine tuning as only they
know how.
The
tour comes on the
heals of the
release of their new
CD
Memories of
the Never Happened
and marks
Rockfour’s first release at AnovA
Music and Cooking Vinyl and the debut of their new lineup! The album, recorded
in San Diego at Earthling Studios and co-produced by Chris Berens and band
members Baruch Ben Izhak and Marc Lazare includes 11 energy-packed tracks mixed
with vaulting jams and melodic harmonies.
Widely
regarded as Israel's best rock export since Minimal Compact,
Rockfour’s signature sound is a
tightly knit mesh of guitar driven drums-bass-vocal harmony that hints at Love,
the Beatles, Grandaddy and the Byrds.
Rockfour burst onto the world scene in 2000 with the release of its
first English-language record Supermarket
on Earsay Records, an internationally acclaimed debut which was
selected by Rolling Stone music
critic Richie Unterberger as one of his ten favorite albums of that year.
The
release of Rockfour's second album
in 2001, One Fantastic Day, also
garnered accolades from top media outlets such as NPR,
The New York Times,
Rolling Stone and
The Los Angeles Times (which dubbed
it a "world-class band flexing its musical muscles."). Opening for other bands
like Dave Matthews, the B-52s and Blondie, together with appearances at
festivals like International Pop Overthrow, SXSW and CMJ Music Marathon, has
helped seal Rockfour's reputation
as "one of the most explosive live bands in the world" (Fufkin.com). After its
first appearance at CMJ in 2001, Rockfour
was immediately signed to the renowned American guitar-pop label Rainbow Quartz
and subsequently released two more albums: the break-through
Another Beginning (2002) and the
follow-up Nationwide in 2004
recorded in Detroit with producer Jim Diamond (The White Stripes) in 2004.
