Reviewing songs can be such a pleasure when you stumble upon a band which you would genuinely love to have in your CD collection or see live. Brooklyn's Red Robot are one such band.
Their brand of indie-rock is delivered with gusto, with a sense of humour, and with more talent than most popular bands within the genre. If there is any justice in the world, Red Robot will become huge, and rightfully overshadow the indie-rock crap that lurks in the charts nowadays. With soaring choruses, great vocals and a rock 'n' roll edge, these four tracks really are quality stuff.
The quite frankly anthemic Puke Remains is the stand-out track here, demonstrating a high level of sophistication in songwriting and production, worthy of multiple radio plays and chart success.
Your Song is also a winner, it's rich harmonies and subtle melody building to a glorious crescendo.
Overall, this is highly recommended listening. A rose among many MySpace thorns, Red Robot surpass their peers with ease.
