"dressed to kill and I'm feeling good"
Nashville based Young Robot stirs up youthful Friday night dreams on the party rocker "No Name". There is a retro sound to me infused in the heavy guitar lines (big hooky chorus) and shouting vox that are bathed in timeless phraseology like "digging on the scene" and "you know it's outa sight" giving it a sort of 90's vibe.
"singing sad songs to all my friends, gonna do this shit till the day it ends"
It is also steeped in the hubris of youth or maybe false bravado, the desire of hooking up, getting lost in your drug or drink of choice and finding out who you are. The jammy lines and swaying slow rocking cadence that makes it easy to hold your drink while dancing is perfect for those get togethers, those house parties that seem like a long lost relic during these days of social distancing.

Hurled at you like an asteroid being carried on cosmic winds of fate, Young Robot’s sound needs no introduction. The power of their riffs will draw you in, then their simple melodies hovering over complex arrangements will seal the deal. This Nashville based Alternative outfit is here to carve out a new niche, and they’re bringing everyone else along for a real journey through time and space.
Started in 2018 by Michael Carter (Vocals/Guitar) ,the full lineup has grown to feature Brandon Pennington (Bass), Christian Nerren (Guitar), and Tanner Fuller (drums). The boys dropped “P R I N T E R” in late 2019 after touring the Southeast and Midwest, then took a chill pill to ride out the majority of the Pandemic. Safety first, kids.
Now, rested and recovered, they’re about to claim 2021 as their own. The first in a round of several singles, “NO NAME”, drops on Feb. 19th. Produced and engineered by several of Nashville’s finest, it’s sure to put these boys on the map.
But most importantly, in your playlists.
