Agent Ribbons and the star crossed doppelganger

Click here for the shank deflector



Not too long ago I enlightened a few folks by introducing them to Agent Ribbons, a band I learned about while trying to get Camera Obscura tickets. Well, it just so happened that Agent Ribbons was the opener for a lot of those shows.

Their debut record, "On time travel and romance" was an absolute gem from start to finish and still remains in VERY heavy rotation at Robot Manor. I hope that those friends of mine who heard it have gone out and gone to one of their shows and hopefully picked up some of their merch as well... they deserve it because they're a sweet bunch and they write fan-fucking-tastic songs!!!

Anyway, they've got a new record coming out soon called "Chateau Crone" and rumor has it that the vinyl is gonna be pretty nifty! Make sure you get out there and buy that or else I'll have to drop by your house... yeah, your house...

Music to my ears: Agent Ribbons

Well, would you look at that...it's Monday night again. I always enjoy Monday nights because I don't have to work on Tuesday. Now, I don't dislike my job...actually, I love being there. It's just that I enjoy gettin' piss drunk and waking up naked on my living room floor much more when I don't have to be anywhere the next day. You dig?

Yeah, I said it...naked. It's a sore sight, but over the years I hear some have enjoyed what that looks like. Personally, I like me better with clothes on, but to each their own, right? I just got chills. Ugh...

Anyway kiddies, I was wandering around the internet looking up when my Scottish cutie pies, Camera Obscura were coming to my area and through the normal six degrees of separation idea, found this band. Agent Ribbons is their name and damn it if these little ladies don't make some of the finest racket I've heard in a while.

If I had to make any comparisons I'd say....um...no, if I had to play the game called "If they mated" I'd say that Agent Ribbons is the child of 2003 White Stripes and Canadian songstress Lullaby Baxter. In other words...good shit.

I got this album the other day and it's been in super duper heavy rotation in the Robot household as well as my Ipod. 

I don't normally do this, but I feel it must be said:

Hey chicken tits, get off of your ass and go buy a physical copy of this album because these girls are making real swell tunes for beautiful goons. If they don't make money, they can't live. If they can't live...well, then I'll die too.

Okay, I won't die, but let's pretend that I'll forever be unable to pronounce the word "pronounce"

...and how bad would that be, huh?

Enjoy Agent Ribbons and their presentation of "On time travel and romance"


*I could be severely incorrect, but something tells me that Little Liza Jane might enjoy this album in full.



Update: She did.
