Who Cares About 40-Year-Old Rock and Roll? Apparently Built to Spill's Doug Martsch.
Despite all Built to Spill's success, it's impossible to deny how down to Earth frontman Doug Martsch is. He remains modest to a fault, going as far to say he wouldn't be a fan of his own band if he wasn't in it. I talked with him over the phone recently about everything from the state of music toda ...
