	"...their live performance lives up to the high standards the band sets on disc."		P R E S S The Stranger Live Preview September 2002 Along with the Bronze, Alta May makes the local heavy-rock contingent proud, grinding away at music that at times invokes elements of both Nirvana and Fu Manchu. There's no posturing here, no cock rock swagger, just a band that walks a shifty tightrope between sludgy metal aggression and punk ferocity (in another era, I guess that's what'd be called grunge). I recently saw Alta May perform at the Showbox (at the opening night for the amazing Justin Hampton/Jermain Rogers/Emek poster-art show) and their live performance lives up to the high standards the band sets on disc. Tonight the band plays with the Valley and DJ Deutscher Meister. - JENNIFER MAERZ <<<< BACK TO PRESS PAGE		BECOME A FRIEND OF ALTA MAY >>> You will receive a space reserved in heaven, as well as notification of shows and releases.
