We’ve been a fan of Miles Benjamin Anthony Robinson since he played the Monolith Music Festival a few years ago behind his awesome self-released album. If you thought that album was great (we sure did) it doesn’t even come close to the greatness of his upcoming new album, Summer of Fear
(due October 20th).
It’s being correctly described as “a biting cross-section of Petty and Dylan, Pavement and Fleetwood Mac, delivering a eulogy to yesterday and the curtain-drawing promise of another day.” I know the guy has won my ear when my favorite track on the album (“More Than A Mess”) clocks in at over eleven minutes. Take a listen to “The Sound” below and see if he can win you over as well.

Errr..I seem to like this, but I can’t shake the feeling that the harmony vocals sound like if Prince had a cousin who likes to get drunk and sneak into Paisley Park at night in order to record a half “Nelson” so to speak.
And the electric piano reminds me of 10cc – but I still kinda like this…
