Great Review by Sue

The New Bottom Line got some coverage in The Review by Sue this week. Check it out. Thanks Sue!!

Before you get all ‘isn’t this the kind of music you say is controlled by secret circles and snotty hipsters” on me give the album a chance. Unlike the ultra cool hipster secret circle music the music doesn’t make you feel like an outsider when you listen to it. Of course you might not get it , or rather understand exactly what they are singing about like say in the first track “Esoteric Devices’ but don’t shy away the third track “Two Purple Hearts” will make you feel better giving you something more to relate too, “House won’t burn / Wife won’t Leave “ are lyrics most people can relate to.

A Tribute To Donnie Wahlberg!

Oh Donnie Wahlberg Boy - watch more funny videos

Lyrics and Video by Eliza Faria Santos

Dot Pop Rocks

Here's a documentary I made just before graduating college about the Grand Rapids, MI punk scene.  It follows the music and philosphy of, well, my best friends. You can hopefully get some insight on where the robot comes from.

Digital Fire Sale!!! Final Day!

I have monitary deadlines and new record coming out tommorow, so midnight tonight is the end of the digital fire sale.

Digital Fire Sale!!! Day Two!

Thanks to everyone who gave support yesterday!  Every bit helps.
I still have  a ways to reach my funding goals, so I guess it's time to raise the stakes!

I present to thee Z Sides: One Bling To Rule Them All.  

 The long whispered about album by Incognegro.  This $1 version comes with bonus tracks not available on the iTunes version.

It also features liquid hot beats by the one and only Mikey AK, the nerd/horror lyrical styling of Detcha, and the smooth ryhmes of MC Dibbz.

With it's fair share of dance floor afrodisiac. I'm looking to sell 100 of these today.  At $1 a pop, you're getting way more than you'll pay for.

Digital Fire Sale!!! Now Until March 1st

My life is a financial disaster.  The upside for you is CHEAP MUSIC!!!

I'm uploading entire albums to our Bandcamp site every day that you can download for $1.  If you wanna give more, you have that option.  But the base price is $1 for an entire album, most of which will come with music videos, or pictures.

These download editions are way cheaper than iTunes, and you can download it in any format you want.  FLAC, .MP3, .WAV.  You name it!
Today's Specails.  The Loveiathan and Midwesterns!!!
You can also get physical CDs for as low as $4. ($4 Includes shipping and handling)

In three days, The Loveiathan won't be the new record anymore, so why not give her a good send off?

Download Here

The download comes with the video for Unremarkable, and the last last two USB copies are going for $5.

I really love this record.  It features some of my best friends, and was recorded all over the place.  From BLD to Los Angeles.

Download Here

This download version comes with the video for Fear & Loathing Of Los Angeles.





This is totally an NPR pleadge drive moment.  Team Robot is drown in debt, and you can help for as little as a dollar and get some sweet tunes out of it.

The New Bottom Line

Our next album, The New Bottom Line will be coming out Tuesday March 1st.  We recorded this album over the course of this last month for NPR's RPM challenge.

No Good Boy

No Good Boy

Here's the first recording from our new practice space, deep in the heart of downtown Columbus.  See us perform it live Thursday, at The South Campus Gateway Theatre.

We Started A Bandcamp Page

Those of you who keep up with the Facebook group know that I've started a daily song series.  Where every day I post a song, new, old, lost and recovered.  I'm sure it will get weird.

What you may not have noticed, is that I'm hosting this collection on our new Bandcamp page. 

Drop in, and listen to tune.  Literally, new ones added every day.  Everything is name your own price to download, so just go nuts guys.
