Florida New Times Mtv Preview


Here's the Ima Robot mention in today's Mtv gig preview from the New Times Broward-Palm Beach (Florida):

"College campuses are the perfect place for a concert: There's guaranteed to be a young crowd up for a good party. Sometimes you'll even find some good music brought in by a campus radio station. But more often than not, big events at So-and-So State are the result of someone trying to get a piece of Johnny Fratboy or Cindy Coed's discretionary income. Profit is probably the main reason for "MTV's Campus Invasion Tour," which makes a stop at Florida International University on Tuesday. The network has placed H****stank and the Lostprophets on the marquee for the tour, though California electro-punk outfit Ima Robot is being billed as "special guest."

Ima Robot doesn't exactly fit in with the nue-metal vibe of the other two bands; its music is too dance-friendly. And the group's self-titled debut album was released in September but was overshadowed by the hype surrounding the Rapture, a New York-based band with a similar sound. For some reason, MTV has gotten behind Ima Robot rather than its countless peers. If you watched MTV's recent spring break coverage, you may have heard the bridge from the single "Alive" playing in the background while a hilarious wet T-shirt contest took place on-stage."
