Album Description
Inhabiting space somewhere between Spoon and Interpol, Robbers schizophrenically mix fast paced dance rock with sinister melodies that pull in different directions. Intelligent, atmospheric, and perfectly off kilter.
Customer Reviews:
A little New York love for the Robbers.......2007-02-03
I have listened to this EP quite a few times now and I do think that Ben Trokan's delivery sometimes sounds like Britt Daniel's (from Spoon), but I can't honestly fool myself into thinking that it's Spoon performing. The Robbers have their own sound, despite the vocal similarities. The one slow song, Opal Ann, has piano that carries the melody softly & sweetly. The other 5 songs, all fast rockers, sound almost like they could make it to regular radio, but honestly, who wants THAT nowadays? Sticking to indie label spirit & domain, the band can later change style, experiment with words & music, instead of being pigeon-holed & dictated by the hand of the big label. It's a promising early EP with an addicting sound for fans of guitar/piano/male-singer rock music. Great modern sound; can't wait to hear their 2007 offerings.
Robbers On SPOON Street.......2005-02-22
I think this is a really good CD, but unfortunately, Robbers On High Street sound EXACTLY like the band SPOON (Austin, TX).
I was given a copy of Fine Lines and had to remove it from my CD player and inspect the label to assure myself this wasn't SPOON's Britt Daniel singing! Its uncanny!! That being said, I guess its better that ROHS sounds like SPOON, than say, Limp Biskit of Nickelback.
For anyone who's never heard SPOON, try picking up Girls Can Tell, Kill the Moonlight, or the EXCELLENT Soft Effects ep (if you can find it). SPOON's been around for more than 10 years & with each successive release has grown into easily the Best Band in Texas (IMHO).
Don't get me wrong -- were it not for them being SPOON-alikes, I think this CD would easily warrant 4+ stars. As it is, I'll give it 3. Still a good CD, just a tad too familiar...
I can't wait to hear the new stuff!
Best EP you've never heard!.......2004-11-26
Think early pavement meets Belle and Sebastian...their full length will be very welcomed! You cannot miss with this one.
Short & Sweet.......2004-05-25
The idea that this cd is only 6 tracks long shouldn't scare you from buying it. Very good sound from these guys...haunting melodies and powerful guitars.
if only it hadn't been done before.......2004-04-24
This CD would be quite exciting if it weren't for the fact that they sound EXACTLY like Spoon. ROHS is a good band, but everything they do well is done better by Spoon. The singer even sounds exactly like Britt Daniel. It's weird.

Album Details
The First Single from the Former Beatle's 2005 Album "Chaos and Creation in the Back Yard" that was Produced by Nigel Godrich (Radiohead, Beck, REM, Travis). The Title Track Sounds Like it Could have Been Lifted from the "Mccartney/Ram" Era. It is Backed with the NON-LP B Tracks "Comfort in Love" and "Growing Up Falling Down".
Customer Reviews:
Best song from a weak lot.......2006-05-04
Chaos and Creation ranks at the bottom of the albums released from McCartney. "Fine Line" ends up being the best song from a woeful bunch of tunes cobbled together for McCartney's Chaos CD. But is it a good song? Lets put it his way; it's a nice song. So nice that it's part of a car commercial these days. On any other McCartney album it would have been a filler track. It would be nice if Paul could re-acclimate himself to the electric guitar and do a little rock 'n' roll again.
A song worthy of Pauls beatle songs!!!.......2006-03-20
Congrats Sir Paul! Fine Line is a beautiful song. Great and Fantastic. My kids and i play it over and over and over again. In the car going to school, to the mall and before they sleep! You know if Paul composed and sang this song in his Beatle years, im 100% sure it will hit #1 in the billboard charts. If he wrote it in the 70s it will be another #1 single for Wings. Even though it didnt hit the charts in 2005, to us fans with taste and intelligence, Fine Line is #1 !!!
He hasn't lost his touch.......2005-11-01
Paul's best work in about 10 years. Working with his new producer was good for him. Congratulations, Paul, and your fans are looking for many more great songs & albumns from you.
Chaos and Creation is Excellent.......2005-10-16
One of Paul McCartney's best albums -- ever! The fact that this is one of McCartney's greatest works is really saying something -- it is one of the high points in an already unparalleled catalog of excellence. Each track is consistently cool. A definite MUST BUY!!!
Fine Line cd.......2005-10-09
The songs Comfort Of Love and Growing Up and Falling Down
should have been added as bonus tracks on Chaos and Creation in The backyard.The songs are good.

Uneven but technically interesting.......2004-05-07
Few albums transcend their material. You are always consciously aware that you're listening to the past--to some recording of a stale event. This generally deadens the impact of the music compared to a live performance. Litanies of Satan is different in that regard. If you can accept Diamanda's performance style on this album which is almost, but not entirely, cacophony, then close your eyes and take a ride. It's as if she's singing from the base of her spine all the way through the top of her head and the music communicates that experience.
The titular song builds and descends several times as Diamanda interprets Baudelaire's poem as an invocation. Though the poem could be read timidly as a long plea for respite, she unwaveringly shrieks the pain that brings someone to side with her tormentor. Eventually she identifies with her subject and speaks with his voice. At the climax, the relationship resembles schizophrenia until a single voice emerges from the din bringing the event to a (somewhat unsatisfactory) close.
"Wild Women with Steaknives" lacks the power of "Litanies of Satan," but being less ridden with effects her voice and style are free to speak for themselves. In this regard her later work shows growth as the song is interesting more on a technical level than an emotional one. Schrei X is an evolution of the "Wild Women" sound that succeeds emotionally although being more vocally minimalist.
Of all of Diamanda's albums, I have difficulty determining the message behind this one. Rarely (if ever) does she sing without intent, but the two songs on this disc fail to cohere like her later work. The album The Singer has a similar problem. In both cases, it seems more like she's trying out a singing style to see how it fits. Once comfortable, she begins to use the style as a medium as opposed to an exercise. Plague Mass serves as a better introduction to this side of her music, while Malediction & Prayer better covers the more melodic aspect.
The Litanies Of Satan ~ Diamanda Galas.......2002-02-25
Well, this is the weirdest record I own! Diamanda Galas has a voice that cannot be described. On this album there are two pieces, Wild Women With Steak-Knives and The Litanies of Satan. WWWSk features Galas screaming over and over like a madman. Her voices carries higher then I have ever heard! The Litanies Of Satan is a version of a poem by a French autor. This is a really creepy album, but if you like challenging art/music, this is the album for you!
"I am not talking about steak....".......2001-04-11
If you are not familiar with Diamanda Galas' extraordinary vocal capabiities, this is the disc to introduce you to them. These 2 recordings, LITANIES OF SATAN and WILD WOMEN WITH STEAK KNIVES, were recorded in the early 80s in London. The background story behind the production of WWWSK is particularly interesting. Seek out a copy of Forced Exposure magazine from 1989. Diamanda's interview will give you so much insight into her creative processes. She talks about literally being awake for more than 24 hours, fueled by caffeine among other things, and laboring through the recording process for WWWSK with producer Dave Hunt in a freezing London basement. Sound boards crashing, microphones blowing out, and numerous re-takes are all in a normal day's "work" for Miss Galas. Best of all her sense of humor really comes through in her interviews.
WWWSK is an aural "exploration" for lack of a better word, of a woman in the throes of schizophrenia. Mixing glossolalia, reverb, spatial delay, signal processing, and multi-tracking, Galas brings out the many complex layers of this woman's psyche. There is much terror and humor in her "words", sometimes the two emotions colliding in the same sound-space. You will understand what I mean only upon hearing it numerous times. Each listening brings a new experience to the listener.
What is so amazing to me is that I have been playing this for more than 11 years, and it still sounds and is BEYOND the avant-garde in music. To call her art "music" is in many ways a disservice. What Galas does is so much more. Her compositions take the listener into places of the human experience most of us will never know. It is her unique ability to communicate psychological, emotional and psychical states of consciousness with such force and clarity that keeps her from being merely 'categorized' for the comfort of art and music critics alike.
She will continue to drag the art, music and social critics kicking and screaming into the future that is her particular style of Expressionism.
"O, Satan, prends pitie de ma longue misere..."
Majestic and Grotesque -- A Great Place to Start.......2000-08-26
This early work by Galas features two pieces, the magisterial "Litanies of Satan" that uses a text by Baudelaire for lyrics, and the hysterical (in both senses of the word) "Wild Women with Steak-Knives", aptly subtitled "The Homicidal Love-Song for Solo Scream". The two pieces taken together are an excellent example of Galas' vocal and compositional ability, though they do not showcase the piano-voice or rock-oriented compositions of some of her other work. "Litanies" is literally a tour of the Inferno, with all of the grandeur of Dante's national epic; "Wild Women" is nothing but bare, amplified voice in an empty room, howling -- disjointed, fragmented, schizophrenic and an incredibly impressive display of what Galas can do with her voice.
scary!.......1998-10-03
i love diamanda, have seen her perform live three times, & have met her in person. i can never get enough. a uniquely disturbing record, (in the best way, of course), it sends shivers down my spine.

New definitions for arias and Lieder.......2002-07-18
Creative is the word here. Innovative also fits. And fresh is another apt adjective. The result practically defies genre classification. "Classical crossover" might describe this CD the best.
The most important thing is the fact that this blending works, and it brings out a previously overlooked quality in such songs as "It's Over", "Reach out, I'll Be There", and "The Ladies Who Lunch". And on the other hand, this blending makes pieces such as "Zwielicht", "Nessun Dorma", and "Larghetto" more accessible to a larger audience.
A major consideration here is that neither the classical nor the popular works are compromised. This CD deserves to be a lot more popular than it is.
One of the most creative albums of 2000.......2002-06-15
Don Byron is the man... Who else would put Puccini's 'Nessun Dorma', Sondheim's 'The Ladies Who Lunch' (featuring the amazing Cassandra Wilson), and 'Reach Out (I'll Be There)' by the Four Tops, on the same album?
To go further, who would infuse their own style into these pieces to such an extent where they all sound like equal parts in a gigantic musical vein? Don Byron, that's who.
The personal highlight is definitely 'It's Over' which former Pat Metheny Group vocalist Mark Ledford handles adeptly.

Caught behind musical bars and fences.......2006-02-10
Concidering the musical explosions and outbursts Nick Cave and his crew of Bad Seeds can cause during a live performance, this soundtrack to the John Hillcoat movie is surprisingly understated and nihilistic. It's an atmospherical and moody mix of dimmed music, seemingly lost voice-overs and eerie soundscapes.
The story is set in a futuristic maximum security prison and listening to the soundtrack you can almost hear the electrical wires buzz. There is a tension through out the whole album that never lets go and that can't be said of most thriller- and horror scores, not even from the so called `great names' in the genre.
High pitched flutes, flares really, are scarcely dropped throughout the movie, giving us the creepy feeling of total alienation. The soundscapes on the cd are as desolate as the landscape in which the movie's prison is standing. One could even speak of a `sense of nether worldy', for both movie and score gives us the strange feeling that the rest of the world, the Common Sense World that is, is gone, and we have become as much a prisonner as the movie characters have and that there is really... really... no way out....

Missing An Important Track.......1999-07-29
Although this Hard Boiled CD is worth every penny, know in advance that the song Tequila plays in the opening scene of the film is not present on this CD.
The rest of the music, however, is perfect. Many subtleties lost in the video and DVD print are crystal clear here. It's easy to appriciate the similarities between this John Woo soundtrack and Face/Off. Suggest it to your action-fan friends!
