Burlington, VT band Robber Robber have announced their second album, Two Wheels Move the Soul, which will be out April 3 via Fire Talk. It was written and recorded across 2024 and 2025 amidst much personal upheaval.
The album includes their excellent recent single “Talkback” and they’ve now shared “The Sound It Made.” Robber Robber have always been hard to pidgeonhole, and there’s a ’90s electronica influence here, bringing to mind groups like The Prodigy, while Nina Cates’ cool delivery is a nice contrast to the song’s maximalist tendencies. They say, “As is the case with most of our music, we were trying to let our instinct guide us and make something that felt visceral and immediate.” You can watch the video below.
Robber Robber will be on a US headline tour this spring, including shows at Tubby’s Kingston on May 28 and Queens club TV Eye on May 29. All dates are listed below.
