BULLSHIT

I Killed Laura Palmer - 6-2-2010 at 03:51 PM

I think I just died.
They better be telling the truth.

neckbeard - 6-2-2010 at 05:05 PM

HOPEFULLY THEY ARE TELLING THE TRUTH.

Delta - 6-2-2010 at 05:34 PM

hopefully its a new song and not ruthless :thumbup:


tho if it is ruthless i hope its a different version, you think after 2 sum years they would have tweaked it some right?

[Edited on 3-6-2010 by Delta]

mynameislou - 6-2-2010 at 06:02 PM

I'm thinkin' it is Ruthless for sure...
But yeah I'm sure they un-demosized it!

[Edited on 3-6-2010 by Delta]



yeah, ruthless is amazing.
but i'd like a really awesome nice sounding album version..
better than our myspace rip. haha

I Killed Laura Palmer - 6-2-2010 at 09:04 PM

Oh, today's also my little brother's eleventh birthday, and when I told him about this news, his eyes lit up like it was the best birthday present ever.
I've brainwashed him.

MESinc. - 6-2-2010 at 09:40 PM

I think I just peed my pants with excitement :D

elblueblazer - 6-3-2010 at 02:36 AM

eh, its been so long since we first heard ruthless. i forget about it. i guess they will have a 2 year old "new" song out.


hey new girl, nice pair!

[Edited on 3-6-2010 by elblueblazer]

beedun - 6-3-2010 at 12:19 PM

happy happy joy joy!!

i hope they surprise us and release both albums at once...

[Edited on 3-6-2010 by elblueblazer]



yeah, im hella excited about this but, Im not expecting anything new considering w eknow most of the songs from the upcoming album. I hope if they do a final studio version of ruthless they dont go the way of sail with me, the radio rip we have is so much better then the album version imo

elblueblazer - 6-3-2010 at 02:55 PM

fuck that I WANT "FLOATS AWAY"!

neckbeard - 6-3-2010 at 06:55 PM

OH GOD YES...floats away would be incredible!!!!!

So, does imarobot.com actually do anything for anyone? In all of my browsers its just a purple drawing with nothing to click on or do.. Hope I found something good in what I posted above and not just stating the obvious...

JPG - 6-6-2010 at 06:59 AM

no, they have stuff hidden for now until the update it for real

beedun and I were pulling that stuff at the same time, sorry for the duplicates

not sure whats up with that. maybe the same website developers are working on both websites?? time will tell.

JPG - 6-6-2010 at 07:31 AM

RUTHLESS video on its way into the Dropbox.

[Edited on 6-6-2010 by JPG]

Delta - 6-6-2010 at 08:42 AM

rock! thanks for the info,, can we get an audio rip of the video, it is a little different than our radio rip version

imarob2 - 6-6-2010 at 08:57 AM

yeah, good diggin', guys. im super excited about that EP cover.

come onnnn, track lists...

poobs - 6-6-2010 at 09:00 AM

What the frick?? Where did you find all that stuff? When I open .com it's just that picture! So stoked everyone else has better computer shit!!

neckbeard - 6-6-2010 at 09:02 AM

so far...it's amazing!
except from the random sketches? what the frick...
but still awesome

things i've gathered from scanning this thread..
the audio is a bit different.
new EP?
some new band is mentioned on their site?
the album will be amazing, and i love Ima Robot!

oh and both audio/video are in the dropbox?

neckbeard - 6-6-2010 at 09:07 AM

and when alex's head first appears it looks like he almost smiles and laughs. ahha

imarob2 - 6-6-2010 at 09:16 AM

anyone having problem with the video playing back?

acalliopemusical - 6-6-2010 at 09:47 AM

i don't understand how you guys find this stuff? are you computer geniuses? i'm not even joking.

imarob2 - 6-6-2010 at 10:26 AM

it's not too tricky, as far as nerdy stuff goes. if you right-click on a web page, you can view the source code. and if you know what you're reading, you can pick out images and whatnot. i wont claim to be a genius with this sort of thing though:no:

[Edited on 6-6-10 by imarob2]

I Killed Laura Palmer - 6-6-2010 at 10:51 AM

Oooh.
I like the video and the song.
I was trying to figure out if there were extras on the site for, like, forever last night.
Y'all are too smart.

But Gawd, I can't wait for the new album!

beedun - 6-6-2010 at 11:10 AM

I dunno about JPG but I program for a living - mainly complex websites. The people that are building the new imarobot.com website aren't very smart when it comes to hiding unreleased things :) Good for us, bad for them.

Us .netters deserve something cool anyways, a sneak peek works for me :)

JPG - 6-6-2010 at 01:21 PM

MY BAD, when I converted the .flv to .mp4 it went all funky, so ignore the dropbox file. I'll fix it soon.

EDIT: Dropbox Fixed

high quality .flv
low quality .mp4
AWESOME .mp3

yeah, I think you are correct. I should have Googled Grand Archives first, as I would have come up with this link:
http://grandarchives.com/

beedun - 6-6-2010 at 08:28 PM

Alex kind of reminds me or Perry Farrel of Jane's Addiction in Ruthless. Anyone else make this connection?

neckbeard - 6-14-2010 at 07:28 PM

you can download the song now!

neckbeard - 6-14-2010 at 07:36 PM

AND:

can someone please tell me if the version we can download from their site is at all different than the myspace rip we've had FOREVER? hahahha


it sounds the same to me. but i'm a bit tired at the moment..
although the end seems a tad different
don't want to delete it if it's different.

SKG - 6-15-2010 at 01:10 AM

Wow. I love this. Do you think they will tour after this?

Delta - 6-15-2010 at 03:34 PM

last tiem i talked to alex he said they prob won't tour for this record, but the next he wants to.

this is def. a little different than the version we got rom myspace. Drumming is a little louder and there is a small guitar part at the end.

neckbeard - 6-15-2010 at 05:47 PM

the manager said they wanted to tour.
conflicting thoughts? hahaha

we'll see.
i doubt they will.
but i'd LOVE LOVE LOVE IT

Delta - 6-15-2010 at 06:14 PM

when did the manager say that, im basing this on last years eddy tour.

neckbeard - 6-15-2010 at 08:33 PM

oh, i emailed the manager not too long ago.
maybe a month?

I Killed Laura Palmer - 6-15-2010 at 09:32 PM

A tour would be niiiice.

SKG - 6-16-2010 at 06:37 PM

Wait. I didn't see the video in the dropbox. Does anyone have it?

poobs - 6-17-2010 at 05:16 AM

They can't tour without their lead singer and, unforunately, he's occupied at the moment..:(

-raven - 6-19-2010 at 09:45 AM

I saw the video for Ruthless a few days ago. Amazing. Can't wait for their new album. :)

Outatime - 8-17-2010 at 08:23 PM

haven't listened to the whole thing yet...but so far.
sort of sounds the same..EITHER Way...i'm PUMPED
thank god for Ima Robot....seriously

neckbeard - 8-19-2010 at 05:52 PM

OH MY GOD, OH MY GOD...
it's SO GOOD!

elblueblazer - 8-19-2010 at 05:56 PM

its exactly the same




*edit

way different at the end, guitar solo and keys. sounds way better than the demo


[Edited on 20-8-2010 by elblueblazer]

neckbeard - 8-19-2010 at 06:02 PM

haha yeah, it was the same at the beginning, and then the end and the music/noises they added in between were great.

the demo was one of my favorite demos of all time.
and this is version beats it..

i'll add the song to the dropbox.

*EDIT* it's added now....
plus, the only part i'm bummed on..is the title.
i liked it more when it was "Life Is Short, Don't Be Mean"

[Edited on 8/20/2010 by neckbeard]

imarob2 - 8-19-2010 at 06:39 PM

per youtube:
"Music video for Ima Robot - Life Is Short
Made with stock footage from the archives of David Nikolic
Directed by Turbotito"

so who is david? filip's brother?

p.s. im super pumped that its this song that the new video that they were releasing is. when i first read the tweet about something new, but then read that theres gonna be another video for ruthless, i was a little let down. i mean, im sure the newer ruthless video will be good, but, i think we all feel the same way about new stuff!

neckbeard - 8-19-2010 at 06:45 PM

hahah i didn't know they were planning on making another ruthless video...
the first one was sick.
but i'd like to see something a little more....music video-ish maybe?
with the band and everything in there more.

imarob2 - 8-19-2010 at 07:37 PM

isnt it great that we can share an exciting day in ima robot goodness from opposite sides of the country?

i really like this video. my parents have been salmon fishing all week and i have been super duper jealous.

i added the life is short video to the dropbox.
for what it's worth, 480p and converted to a .mov

neckbeard - 8-19-2010 at 07:40 PM

hahahha i know! the Zeros and Robot magic keep us all connected.


thanks rob!!

mynameislou - 8-19-2010 at 09:53 PM

Indeed.

Outatime - 8-19-2010 at 11:25 PM

This is what I got off of Werewolf Heart Records page:

"Hi There! It’s been a while since i have been posting anything on this blog. First of all i had tons of problems with embedding videos, which made me so frustrated that i almost gave up, then something happened with the site that just crashed the whole thing :-(
BUT! Now it works again so why not start with giving you a new little video! I made this one out of a bunch of 8mm footage my brother gave me, for some reason i think that the whole catching fish/eating fish scenario fits the song really well. Enjoy:"

beedun - 8-20-2010 at 10:48 AM

I really dig the 8-bit vibe of the background sounds. Awesome song, awesome indeed!

neckbeard - 8-25-2010 at 09:00 PM

the only thing that bums me out is that it's Lakai...but i guess it's
whatever...
after watching it...sort of...i love Sail With Me so much.
i didn't even watch the skating because i don't really like any of those guys...mike carroll is alright, and i think Marc johnson was int here..he's okay...but yeah CAN'T WAIT FOR NEW IMA



but i just wish it was either Emerica or Baker...only because i know andrew reynolds knows alex (used Song #1 in a video) and is also the founder of The Goat...also on WWH

[Edited on 8/26/2010 by neckbeard]

Sarbear - 8-26-2010 at 04:21 AM

Andrew Reynolds also made shoes, and in Colorado, Alex traded his shoes that were 2 sizes too big for some brand new toms that fit him perfectly. When he traded them the kid was like "These shoes were made by your friend Andrew Reynolds? Who's That?" Alex's reply: A friend.

neckbeard - 8-26-2010 at 06:09 AM

hahahahha so awesome!! yeah.
Reynolds is on Emerica..best shoe brand ever.
they have a new video premiering in like...5 days?

CAN'T WAIT

Outatime - 9-9-2010 at 04:09 AM

SO i just got around to watching LAKAIROMANIA holy crap Sail With Me is EPIC

neckbeard - 9-16-2010 at 08:16 PM

PASS IT ON

here's the blog it's on

and if you just want to go straight to the mp3
here it is!


at first, I didn't think there was a difference between the two versions we have....this one and the MySpace Rip.
but the MySpace rip is like 20 seconds longer...and i checked at the same times throughout both, and slight differences are there.
so i'm keeping both versions.




now, we're only missing album versions of
Sail With Me, Shine Shine, Swell

[Edited on 9/17/2010 by neckbeard]

JPG - 9-17-2010 at 06:00 AM

WOOOO. Yeah It sounds better.

edit:

i found this (http://www.redeyeusa.com/artist/14250/albums/CD-WWHR-004/)
1 One Man's Trash (0:51)
2 Ruthless (6:44)
3 Sail With Me (6:11)
4 Rough Night (6:03)
5 Life Is Short (6:44)
6 Pass it On (5:40)
7 Shine Shine (5:20)
8 Swell (8:58)

pretty much none mach up (its close), with what we have now... but looks like Swell is going to be long!

[Edited on 9-17-2010 by JPG]

never mind, realized that you have to go to the mp3 download section, not the album one..
