Album Review From Norway

"Ima Robot combines the sublime joy of eating a fish sandwich on the fjord with the irrational ecstasy one inevitably succumbs to during a funicular ride in Bergen."

My brother didn't have his dictionary handy, but here's his go. It's not the most favorable review:

----------

CD: While The Strokes and Black Rebel Motorcycle Club are almost only (??) Television and The Jesus and Mary
Chain, now comes along a gang of americans who bear? inspiration for ???

Los Angles group Ima Robot (funny wordplay) have newly ?? postpunk scene? The Buzzcocks and Magazine, and it is thought possible that they ?? over someone who is very excited and who maybe ?? have heard before.

the looked for start-stop ?? postpunk with ? identical? vocals, that remind a little, surprise, of bad Magazine and the Buzzcocks. Well timed(??) as they
were, this is like a band that the rest of us have became tired of a long time ago. That same problem has unfortunately ?? with MC5 and Stooges, two bands it ??
is impossible to put back down??.

Come on folks, now that is enough retro-- it is time to make something new!
