Short, in-your-face rock songs are Randy Thunderbird’s M.O. How to talk to kids about robots is no exception. From the first track to the 10th, this album with have your blood pumping and your ears pounding. Randy Thunderbird sings about everything from rainbows and unicorns, to cheap shots in an album that would surely offend a mother from the 1950s.
Constant sound bombards your ears as you listen to each song. Jesse Soltis maintains a constant roll of symbols, snare and bass on his drum set while Stu Swope and Joe Fish work together to make sure you always hear one of their guitars. Joe Fleet lays down a backing bass line and all four members sing to complete the sound.
With an angry sounding lead singer and guitar riffs that are even meaner, How to talk to kids about robots is not for the faint of heart. “Science Friday” is the rare song where the band slows things down a bit. “Lockjaw,” the last song on the album, keeps with Randy Thunderbird’s tradition of foul language by ending with the line, “just shut the f--- up.”
