Check out some early critical soundbites forCROBOT:
"Rock fans around the planet can likely agree on one thing: There is a sad shortage of good old-fashioned, straightforward guitar riffs on the planet these days. Never fear, however: Pennsylvania band CROBOT is out to remedy that with its blend of funk, blues, metal and rock and roll, which its rapidly growing fanbase is comparing to such classic hook-builders as SOUNDGARDEN and QUEENS OF THE STONE AGE."YAHOO MUSIC (USA),Wendy Geller
"What would happen if the FOO FIGHTERS, RED HOT CHILI PEPPERS, RAGE AGAINST THE MACHINE, QUEENS OF THE STONE AGE and everything you love about 70's metal had a love child? Well they did and its name is CROBOT. With a stage performance that is wild, brutal and sexy all at once, they're poised to take as a band that can crossover into many genres and find fans among many musical tastes."PITTSBURGH MUSIC MAGAZINE (USA),Alan Welding
"The love child of Josh Homme and Russell Brand, CROBOT crushed their debut at Rock On The Range. Vocalist Brandon Yeagley moved like a man possessed to the heavy bass lines of Jake Figueroa."EXAMINER (USA),Daniel DeSlover
"CROBOT embodies the old school mentality of leaving every ounce of energy on the stage in order to mesmerize the audience. Stirring together the finest riff rattling chord progressions of LED ZEPPELIN and AEROSMITH with the rhythmic funk of Stevie Wonder and 90s heaviness of RAGE AGAINST THE MACHINE, CROBOT performed in front of a small New York City crowd as if they were QUEEN headlining Wembley Stadium. On stage, the band's passionate delivery flooded onto the audience leaving many with gleaming eyes in awe of what they just witnessed. CROBOT's ability to merge the bombastic thrills of past and present rock music demonstrated something euphoric and transcendent that is desperately lacking in music nowadays."BAEBLE MUSIC (USA), Anthony Toto
