3Oh!3 is a band from Boulder, CO that earned a spot on the Warped Tour this year. Congrats guys! They are a really fun group that is a kind of hip-hop/electronica. There are two guys that make up the band and although they have been together for about four years they are just now getting the attention they deserve. Their song "Don't Trust Me" is a favorite of mine and can be found when 3OH!3's new album "Want" goes on sale July 8, 2008. Enjoy this video of "Hollar Til You Pass Out."
Catch 3Oh!3 on the Warped Tour starting tomorrow June 20th.
The Flobots are a Denver band that is starting to make it big in the world of music. Their recent hit "Handlebars" made it to #3 on the US Modern Rock charts and #49 on Pop charts. According to Rolling Stone the Flobots sound like, "Linkin Park with Rage Against the Machine's Zach de la Rocha and his political leanings at the microphone and a violinist building the tension. Jonny 5 raps about topics like human rights, globalization and drug legalization on the band's major label debut Fight with Tools."
The Flobots are also another band to add to the list of those that have branched out into the world of comics. This can be seen in their new video for "Handlebars" but can also be seen on their website. On this site you can read Tales of the Flobots: Architects of Change. The comic is a reflection of the band's and fan's ideas. The comic isn't complete but is updated often. Also on the comic site you can find a link to a third website for the band. This third site is about activating change. They are not just a band that sings about making a change in the world but are active in bringing it about. Bravo guys and gal
