Mothers Against The Future in San Jose
Allegedly, nobody in the band is a mother or against the future. However, the Bay Area power trio is one of the heaviest new local acts seen in a long time. How new? They currently have nine monthly Spotify followers. What they lack in followers and recordings (five total songs on the streaming site), they make up for in raw, unbarred ferocity, blending grunge and sludge rock with hefty doses of riot grrrl and psychedelic noise. Angry, visceral and unafraid to drop some political commentary (like the song “ARsweet16”), Mothers Against The Future is the path local bands should take in the … present.
Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde in Saratoga
Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde are so ingrained in the culture that it’s simply the easiest way to describe a person with erratic mood shifts.

It’s an innately human story about the forces of good and evil that fight for dominance within everyone. In Silicon Valley Shakespeare’s production, Dr. Jekyll’s love for a woman motivates him to end his experiments. Is true love enough to inspire him to be good? A question many people ask themselves. The play runs till Aug. 30.

Yeah, those guys are bringing their Appalachian sounds to Menlo Park.
