Sick, I've never heard Flobots before but they're coming to Burlington with People Under The Stairs in August. Got my ticket and I'm so stoked.

Yeah they're definitely a great band. The whole album is full of political and social commentary. They've been on my ipod for months.

I saw the flobots live a couple times this last spring in Denver.  they have a pretty tight flow and are chill guys.  My band opened up for a show of theirs before their debut album dropped and they were just a ratty local hip-hop group.

I think I'm the only person I know who doesn't like this band. Talking into a mic just doesn't cut it for me. Sorry flobots, gotta step up your game, spoon too for that matter. If you kids like it that's rad, I don't want to start one of them famous NS bitch-opolluzas.

BUT does anybody else dislike these guys?

I was referring to the first post I made about going to a Flobots concert where People Under the Stairs are the opener. As far as that concert goes, not my whole musical library, I'm only stoked for People Under the Stairs.

To each his own, they're not my favorite group by any means but guitars and hip hop definitely isn't something you see every day.

I disagree. I find the lyrics to handlebars to be a powerful socail-political commentary.

Agreed. Most people are just listening to the catchy tune but every flobot song is saying something powerful in its own way.
