Tsunamibots - The Crushing

After 2 EPs with similarly crude album art, this very persistanly robot supremacist band has put out their first LP. While one might expect clean sinewave tones from a robot band, Tsunamibots actually have a pretty trashy tone with occasional sound effects thrown in. Song structures are simple, easy to bounce along to and despite their forceful message, they still know how to have fun. Take the lighthearted beach party number "Robotic Meltdown", which even cuts loose enough to include handclaps -- presumably made with repurposed human meat.

Leave a frightful message for this year's Halloween show!

It's finally happening. This year's closest Monday to Halloween is... Halloween. 

As is always the case, we've got the SPOOKLINE open. Leave terrifying message for the Halloween show and you can be a part of the horror! Your disturbing groans and howls will be spliced in-between the music. Because together we're scarier.

I do need to get this already on All Hallows Eve Eve, so make sure to leave your message ON THE 30th OR EARLIER

Operation: Diamond Bikini - Chief, Game Over!

The first LP from Operation: Diamond Bikini follows the example laid forth by their : generally fast and forceful surf with dash of quirky sense of humor thrown in. That humor usually takes the form of sound clips, which compliment the music well and don't go overboard. Guitar tone is generally pretty clear and staccato and have the same frantic stumbling feel as their countrymen The Messer Chups.
