Just finished #listening to One in a Thousand by Obey Robots;

Fuzz pop isn't the kind of thing I routinely listen to, but this was quirky and fun, and artfully produced.
#HatTip to @booleanvalue who told me about it.
@penfriendrocks This is going to make someone happy...

In which I ramble on the subject of the music industry and independent music promotion…

By way of a BBC article and the biggest music industry earners last year. I’m pretty sure I don’t need to hashtag Taylor Swift, though I do discuss her.
Got my #ObeyRobots album!
Only heard about them on Mastodon at the weekend via https://mastodon.sdf.org/@syneryder/109994696418620932. But I like their style.
Also bought the lead singer's solo album. Signed because it gave an independent artist an extra £5, and I hope it makes her feel good and cool that people want the signed version.
This is hilarious and rather heartwarmingly wonderful - Laura Kidd (aka Penfriend fka She Makes War) and Rat (of Ned's Atomic Dustbin) videoed their reactions to receiving news of their Obey Robots collaboration's end of week chart positions.
CW: quite a lot of shocked swearing

I love the new album by #ObeyRobots but this review is bloody hilarious. How on earth can you be so beautifully eloquent while running like that is, well, astounding. #JimmyWatkins, I salute you!
Obey Robots - One in a Thousand. Running Review!

#NowPlaying #ObeyRobots One in a Thousand, the new album from #Penfriend and Rat (#NedsAtomicDustbin) just dropped. And it is *tasty*. Pretty much everything #Penfriend (aka #LauraKidd) does is worth the price of admission, but this is a treat.
Look what the postman just brought me! It is release day for One In A Thousand by Obey Robots.
#NowPlaying #Vinyl #ObeyRobots
Give your ears a treat! The new album by Obey Robots - One in a Thousand - is out today and is close to perfect.

Album release day is here. It's peculiar to know this piece of work has flown into so many peoples' lives already, that our songs are finally being listened to (perhaps right now!).
Here's "One In A Thousand"
https://penfriend.rocks/hello-world @penfriendrocks #ObeyRobots #NewMusic
I'll never not want to share with the world the amazing talent of @penfriendrocks ...
But I'm biased. So here's what
Miles Hunt (The Wonder Stuff) thinks of her new project, Obey Robots, with Rat (Ned's Atomic Dustbin). https://louderthanwar.com/obey-robots-one-in-a-thousand-an-album-musing-by-miles-hunt/
...
In fairness, he's probably biased too but 2 people can't both be wrong can they?

Currently listening to Obey Robots (Laura Kidd of Penfriend/She Makes War and Rat of Ned's Atomic Dustbin), ahead of the release of their debut album, One in a Thousand.
Listen if you like smart lyrics and loud guitars!

I am a lifelong #NedsAtomicDustbin fan (eh, I grew up in the Midlands in the early 90s) and it makes me so happy to see their guitarist Rat making new music as #ObeyRobots with Laura (#Penfriend) that is really quite lovely (even if it's nothing like #Neds) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PCHSlFB8VN4
@penfriendrocks so glad to see that you’ve migrated to @Mastodon ever since #spaceboy aka ElonMusk launched his #specialopetation on the Bird site, everything has gone downhill over there.
Will be looking forward to your #obeyrobots album 😊
