I just played 'Love is a Boombox' for my girlfriend and this was her reaction. I thought it was a great description!
Um...I'm not too sure why I got so excited about that and felt the need to post, but maybe it'll make you guys smile.

That's not a bad description of their music, actually! The one I like best is Dallas Austin's (he was the guy everyone thought was going to produce
the album until they decided to use someone else):
"It's like The Kinks, but electroclash."
We need to come up with some blurbs for the band, beat out the rock journalists who will be sure to concoct similar ones...
"It's Dean Martin, if he were a whippet freak instead of a drunk."
"It's a transgender Kool-Aid man slamming through a wall."
"It's the first song that comes into your head when you wake up in a dumpster."dnewton - 2-26-2003 at 08:37 AM
Haha, I love that last one!
"It's like a backrub from a Decepticon."

Just messing around! Don't let me stop you here.
Maybe JMJ can use some of them in promo interviews or something... draconian - 2-28-2003 at 11:57 AM
You need to make a contribution, cap'n!

The audio equivalent of a minty fresh toothpaste.
They are a Pez dispenser with its head on backwards.
The music hyenas listen to before attacking a zebra.
OK I can't compete.

It's like Marc Bolan stomped up to MC Hammer and was indeed able to touch it.

Aw, cheer up, Poobs. Here's a topical one for you:
"If IMA Robot were a Girl Scout Cookie, they'd be called the Explochuco."draconian - 3-6-2003 at 01:58 PM
And this is what I mean. I just received the Knitting Factory New York update, and their description of David Berkeley reads as follows:
"If Grant Lee Phillips and the ghost of Nick Drake hit the open
road, the music from David Berkeley and his talented band might
be what they'd choose to listen to."
Maybe we are on to something here.poobs - 3-6-2003 at 02:01 PM

I've been dyin to get in on this, but thought too much , so I'm just gonna spout...
If Steve Perry, Margot Kidder, and Herbie Hancock stole the General Lee to do a beer run, IMA Robot would be in the CD player.:Pdraconian - 3-9-2003 at 05:06 PM
for finding a way to sneak Margot Kidder in there, did she show up in your
backyard and force you to mention her?
