Best Albums of 2011

Best Albums of 2011 I've been thinking a lot about the list-making process. Someone recently asked me: What is the purpose of making a list? My initial reaction - because it's fun - is actually somewhat shallow. Is it really? Yeah, probably...somewhat...maybe? But if so, still: Why? In listening to me think out loud about this, my wife commented that she doesn't make lists for fun. Why, then? "To keep myself sane. To make sure I don't forget things I need to do." In other words: To make order out of chaos. To provide structure to an unstructured world. As [...]

Robbers On High Street "Hey There Golden Hair"

Robbers On High Street "Hey There Golden Hair" Previous albums from Robbers On High Street made comparisons to Spoon, but four years later things have changed. With Hey There Golden Hair , they dive headfirst into Beatlesque power pop. The opener "Hollow Hill" is a perfect example of taking elements of Fab Four style and crafting something new and wonderful. There is not a single dud on the album, mixing Hammond Organ, fuzz guitar riffs and horns to melodic perfection. Other 602s and 702s stylistic touches are sprinkled throughout, as "Crystal Run" and "Electric Eye" are legit hits if they made the radio. And the band does [...]

Consequence of Sound's Guide to CMJ Music Marathon 2011

Araab Muzik - Streetz Tonight 2011
Next week, some 900 bands will rain down upon New York City at the 2011 edition of CMJ Music Marathon . Here's the dilemma: You can't see 900 bands. You might see 100, but despite all the cab fares and hours of sleep you'll waste away, you won't see it all. That's okay, you'll still catch plenty of talent. Even if your plane lands late (it's inevitable), or your trip from JFK to Manhattan ends up being one long, monotonous slog, chances are you'll still have plenty of tales from The Cake Shop or The Bowery to [...]

Robbers on High Street: Hey There Golden Hair

Robbers on High Street - "Face in the Fog" - Live for CMJ 2010
A clever, confident amalgam of '60s psych and '70s pop, Robbers on High Street have delivered one of the year's most unexpected surprises. If you're looking for proof that sometimes a band just needs time to find its true identity -- and time and patience being in short supply in today's instant gratification, buzzblog music culture -- allow me to present Robbers on High Street's third album, Hey There Golden Hair. When most of the world last checked in with ROHS, way back in 2005, the band was riding the success of their debut single, "Japanese Girls", an...

Review: Robbers on High Street, Hey There Golden Hair [2011]

Review: Robbers on High Street, Hey There Golden Hair [2011] Robbers on High Street's third LP, Hey There Golden Hair , is finally out, and I can happily report that it is the band's best record yet. Given and Taken in Ink has covered the band somewhat extensively ; for example, you can read the heartwarming tale of mistaken identity in the lawless wild west of post-Napster mp3 downloading, a journey which led me to discover RoHS. It was GTI's inaugural non-"hey, read my new blog!" post (i.e. the second thing I wrote about here). Anyway, neither you nor anyone else cares about that. [...]

Robbers on High Street return — on the sunny side

Robbers on High Street return — on the sunny side Ben Trokan's story is a familiar one to any indie band that lived in the major-label margins last decade. His band Robbers on High Street made two albums and two EPs for Warner imprint New Line Records between 2005 and '07 before the relationship soured. "Everything ground to a halt," Trokan says. "The label was not responsive, people stopped returning phone calls, we had no idea what was going on." ||| Download: "Hey Unbelievers" (via KEXP) The seeds of Robbers' chipper comeback album "Hey There Golden Hair" [...]

Robbers on High Street – The Fatalist and Friends (CD)

The bouncy bass first heard during "The Fatalist" works well alongside a very angular approach by the Robbers on High Street. What results is a style of music that relies heavily on a eighties sound even as the band wedges themselves into the retro style of rock that is played by acts like The Killers [...]

Robbers on High Street, "Watch Me Disappear" [live]

Well, well, well. It seems Robbers on High Street's Hey There Golden Hair will be released after all. The band put out a vinyl/digital single for two songs from the album, "Electric Eye" and "Face in the Fog," almost a year ago, and we haven't heard a whole lot about the album since then. But, it looks like 2011 will be a big year for the Robbers, as not only is their new album coming out in September, but the band will be releasing a limited edition EP in July. Until then, they've released [...]
