Fans call Steve Kimock "The Little Toaster," not only for his small physical stature but for the way he cooks on his guitar. Here's why. This version of "It's Up to You" (a longtime Zero staple) isn't long by KVHW standards, but it's a virtual clinic on how to develop a jam with patience, expression, and passion. If you can manage to tune out Kimock, take a listen to the rest of the band: Hertz's turn-on-a-dime snare work, Vega's snaking bass lines, and White's tasty rhythm fills spiral the proceedings into a delicious frenzy of release. Could be the shortest eight minutes you'll ever spend.
