The Bishop Bar
Robber Robber
Robber Robber’s *Two Wheels Move the Soul* is a blistering post-punk eruption born from upheaval. Written during a winter of displacement and instability, the Burlington quartet channels chaos into sharp hooks, distortion, and Nina Cates’ cool, commanding delivery. It’s an album about class, catastrophe, and dancing through the wreckage when everything else falls apart.
