For those who love bands that don’t hold back, Alvie &amp; the Breakfast Pigs have something to offer. They don’t chase trends, they carry the torch!—<h2>LOSER SOUP</h2>—Loser Soup is a power-pop/Indie rock band from San Francisco, originally formed in a little beach town known for its beach boardwalk.—
