Robot(A) - No Kings

Robot(A) have a new single out and it is rather jolly good.



They say "Inspired by video games, loud bass, distorted 
guitar and creatures from other planets, ROBOT (A) have 
taken a refreshing approach to modern day punk rock. Armed with 
audio weaponry, such as guitar, bass, midi keyboard & laptop, the band are 
quickly becoming recognised as being at the forefront of this new 
wave of electronic punk music"

I say .........

CRUSH!
STOMP!
ROAR!!!!!!!!

Mechametal made by mutants, technopunk facemelt space-monkeys
jamming on untested drugs, fuelled by electronics and distortion.

Robot(A) - Crush! Stomp! Roar!

Robot(A) live up to the title of their EP as they crush/stomp
roar and in general just fucking kick shit out of the genre
termed digital hardcore.

I have wandered into this sort of music by mistake in the past
and have always been met with tinny, pre-set patterns that
have attempted to resemble something approaching hardcore
but fail dismally.


Robot(A) have come up with something that gets my head banging - 
meaty pounding drums, throbbing bass, dirty distorted guitars and
vocals that veer from powerful to brutal. The difference that makes
these guys stand apart are the arrangements. The writers have
a clear sense of how song passages are constructed meaning
there is a real flow to the tracks which give them an identity.

Rather than just random arpeggio generators being the main source
of keyboard sounds, there are banks of sounds that compliment
the guitars and add depth to the attack.

Don't take my word for it - give it a listen!
