    Excellent review Brian. Your description of the entire album was spot on and your enthusiasm made me go check it out on their band camp page. Needless to say I ordered it immediately on LP. Thanks for the recommendation and have a great weekend. John :)

    Hi Brian, well once again this took me twice as long to watch as I was pausing and listening to recommended tracks and from what I heard, I liked a lot. I appreciate your in depth and honest review of the album. From what I heard of the album, I did hear punk elements in the music, a Joan Jett meets The Donnas meets Jimmy Eat World. Awesome job and I will be listening to the entire album! Hope all is well and sorry for the radio silence as of late. Best, Steve

    I showed Sharen Is Karen on my last vinyl finds. I had only streamed it once and showed it the day it arrived. As a result I didn’t have much constructive to say.

    • @EmbryonicRobot

      To be honest, I found rather difficult to say anything useful! Record reviewing might be harder than it looks...

    I checked them out and they got the official audio rip available now on TH-cam. Yup, very power-pop slash pop-punk. I doubt I'm going to get a comp copy of it, but I've barely begun chomping through filming my backlog of hot new arrivals as it is. And shrinkwrap and hype stickers are life! Hahaha

    • @EmbryonicRobot
      @EmbryonicRobot  หลายเดือนก่อน

      Ha ha. I agree. I do like to keep the hype stickers. Way back in the day, I just threw them in the trash. I wish I had kept them!

    A great band name, I'll mention it to my partner who's called Karen and has a friend called Sharon. I think I saw someone else talking about this record the other day (or maybe it was yourself on a vinyl update?). I never buy records from Bandcamp which makes me feel a bit uncharitable and stuck-in-the-mud, but I just view it as a slippery slope given my relative lack of shelf space. Sounds like an interesting record though so will try and stream it!

    • @jamesgriffithsmusic

    • @EmbryonicRobot
      @EmbryonicRobot  หลายเดือนก่อน

      Shipping from Bandcamp to Canada are very expensive, which is a bummer, because there is always interesting records. In fact, shipping to Canada (and within Canada) is crazy, so I only ever order from Amazon with free shipping. Otherwise, I end up paying double the price of the record or more for shipping 😡

      Mazzy also showed this, and so did Wyoming Dave and Elliott Crews. Word is getting around, it seems.

  • @musicisajourney
    @musicisajourney หลายเดือนก่อน

    Listening to you describe the music, I paused the video to check out the music. Considering just the music, it totally reminds me recent Shonen Knife (which I’ve been listening to a lot recently). It has a little more full sound, but before the vocals come in, I can easily imagine Naoko Yamano’s voice coming in.
    The vocals are good though. Yeah, it’s a solid album!

    • @EmbryonicRobot

    Hi Brian, something's going on here. 🤔 First I see Elliot Crews review the album, then Richie and now you. So I had to go and listen to it. Yeah it's pretty good U.S. pop punk. Fork in the Toaster is my favourite track. Cheers Mike
