ALBUM + MUSIC VIDEO REVIEW ” Robotanists set themselves apart from most bands, keeping an upbeat and interesting style at the same time as being deep and sensual.”

INDIE ROCK REVIEWS >>>>

MUSIC VIDEO FEATURE | ALBUM REVIEW “Evocatively dreamlike without sacrificing command or precision. [Plans in Progress] moves consistently through a spectrum of hushed melodies, crashing choruses and driving rhythms. The Robotanists’ third full length album may be the shortest, but it’s the most relentless and auspicious in what lies ahead for the four piece.”

ALBUM + CONCERT REVIEW “concentrated dose of brilliance… and with an LP full of fetching tracks [Plans in Progress], whose gigantic choruses will penetrate your subconscious and stay there.”

EAT SLEEP BREATHE MUSIC >>>>

ALBUM REVIEW “Robotanists third album, Plans in Progress, is full of soulful melodies and soothing vocals. From beginning to end the listener is transported into a relaxing state of zen, mesmerized by singer Sarah DeBlanke’s vocals. The songs effortless blend together so that there isn’t a moment for the listener to jolt back to reality.”
