Lyrical tag-team Greg Giles and Kelly Atkins blend seamless co-ed harmonies and catchy but unpredictable songwriting. SF Weekly says: "Some bands are lovable because they sound so dumb: Take the Pipettes or Metallica, for instance. Local jangle freak-pop band 20 Minute Loop is just the opposite, with a distinct sound that says, “These people are perfectly nice, but they are smarter than you and know it. Fear them slightly. They can do math.” It’s the sound of many other musical aggregations, like early REM, or the Pixies or Sonic Youth. Sudden tempo changes, a total lack of normal chord structure, and difficult vocal harmonies are typical 20 Minute Loop touches, but the overall effect is far from challenging. In fact, it’s charming and pretty – it’s pop, after all. Interestingly, the group’s three full-length CDs hardly do justice to its live show, which is even better and smarter." Their fourth studio release “Famous People Marry Famous People” will be released on July 11, 2008.
