Grime Time - Robot Attack
When I read that Grime Time were trying to "fill the shoes of The Ramones, Screeching Weasel and other pop punk legends" I thought there's plenty trying to do that, let's see what you've got. To be honest, for a debut album they make a pretty good go of things.
From Ukiah, Northern California, Grimetime feature a line up of Brian Klovski (vocals/guitar), Dustin Jordan (guitar), Mike Spencer (bass) and Jarred Skaggs (drums). You can get more info on them here : https://www.facebook.com/GrimeTimeRock/
2 years in the making, the debut album is titled I Think We Could Do Better and is available on cd and digitally : https://grimetime.bandcamp.com/album/i-think-we-could-do-better
A dozen original compositions plus a rocking cover of The Cascades' hit The Rhythm Of The Rain, it's definitely worth checking out and if the title is correct then album number 2 will be something special.
I'm always initially attracted to a pop punk band's sci fi themed songs before any other so it was a fair bet I'd choose this one to highlight on here. A fast paced, catchy as hell tune with plenty of cool backing whoa whoas and chunky guitars (think Death By Television era Lillingtons), this is Robot Attack....
Thanks for the listen!
