The Artist: Todd MacFarlane is the mastermind behind so many childhood memories I just don’t know where to start. Creator of the world renown comic series Spawn, his art style is immediately recognizable and provokes a myriad of responses from various folk the world over.
The Writer: Kirkman has already recieved accolades on this, your [...]

Today’s Track of the Day actually gets you 3 (or 4) for the price of one.  I have been receiving an absurd amount of singles in my email lately and was sifting through them to find what gem I could post today.  I prefer to put some more obscure singles out there, but most importantly, [...]

Geeky white dudes that make great grooves and sexy dance rock.  That about sums up We Are Scientists.  It makes me wonder how much action these dudes really get from their shows seeing as how all of their singles make women go wild like Patrick Dempsey just walked into the room.
The first single from the [...]

Jack White’s Third Man Records has some seriously dark, bluesy characters lurking in its roster.  The Black Belles are a collection of tough looking dames playing some serious garage rock, that, I’m sure, makes Jack proud.
I really love the sound of this new single as the noir video rolls along like an Alfred Hitchcock-esque mind [...]

Those damned Mumford & Sons . . . they’re just so rad.  The appalachian folk music they throw down on Sigh No More has kept them buzzing on the internet blogosphere and their street-cred is right up there with Vampire Weekend, only with a dirty, barroom blitz kind of feel.

Seattle’s favorite sons (presumably) Band Of Horses, just announced a new album due out May 18.  Details are still a little sketchy other than the fact that the album will be called Infinite Arms.  There hasn’t been any other announcements on what label the album will be released on or whether or not the beards [...]

To preface this edition of Saturday Morning Punks with something weird: Someone named Mary emailed me and told me that a good way to get more hits on a blog was to post recipes. I’m assuming this was an automated email from an “improve your blog” service seeing as how I’m a friggin [...]

Those damned Canadians.  They get the Olympics, snag our hockey gold medal, and now they release some fine indie-rock music.  Since when did Canada become an epicenter of victory?  I mean . . . they’ve never even fought a war, led alone WON one.
Perhaps Canada is on the uprising these days.
The Born Ruffians are a [...]

Among the most searched terms on TrendRobot since its beginning are “Broken Bells”, “Vaporize” and “The High Road”. All of these terms, at one time or another, appeared on the site via our Track of the Day segment and I gave nothing but praise to the duo whose main projects I loved so dearly. [...]

I’ve always been a sucker for the Bloc Party/Minus The Bear connection of Foals.  The super-groovers have just released a new single for their upcoming album, Total Life Forever, to be released on May 10th.

“Spanish Sahara” is a bit more moody and mellow than anything they’ve put out in the past, but it’s a nice [...]
