as all ready mentioned, i thought they would feature somewhere in the 'top 50' new bands of 2004, and they did.

obviously, franz ferdinand topped the chart, but there was about 9 other bands that had a whole page article about them, then the rest were just mentioned in the text. ima featured in the latter

it read-

LA ROCK

With LA ready to rise again, who's rocking

in contrast to 'Dios' slacker-pop, theres the sharp suited squall of The Icarus Line, and the electro-pop of Ima Robot.

not exactly brill, but its the start of something big

:D See even they know it's the start of something BIG !

oh no, i put the 'not exactly brill, but its the start of something big' bit in. thats no the nme's review of ima robot! 'not exactly brill' is my review of the nme review!

Soon a full-page spread...maybe when their tour in Europe hits.

I should have the NME in my mailbox once I arrive home, I'll have to check that little nugget out.

You never know, maybe you're the Nostradamus of NME pridictions. Keep them coming.

all right then. i predict that the nme after the 'nme awards show' there will be a review in there! good enough!?

There was a brief, positive review of the EP, I recall, back in August. A concert review would be great, even if it is only a paragraph incorporated into a larger writeup.
