Pennsylvania-based rockers CROBOT have just announced their new rhythm section.

New to the line-up is drummer Dan Ryan and bassist James Alexander Lascu. James also plays bass in Detroit-based quintet WILSON and will continue to do so for both bands. Dan is an official Ddrum USA artist, while James is endorsed by Darkglass Electronics, Spector, EMG Pickups and Ernie Ball.

Of the announcement, the band comments: “All is definitely well in the CROBOT home nebula as we welcome the insanely talented and hard hitting Dan Ryan on drums and the power and monstrous bass playing of James “Uncle Jimmy Muscles” Lascu to hold down the heavy bottom. We are 50 songs into the writing process and we are excited about how productive we have been over the last few months. To say these guys are making us a better band would be an incredible understatement. Stay tuned for new riffin’ & groovin’ as we are planning for a 2018 release! Keep your beards tuned to that same ol CROBOT transmission!” 

The band completed a summer headline tour with the duo including festival stops at Chicago Open Air, Rock USA and SEETHER’s Rise Above Fest, where they were joined by Clint Lowery on stage to perform AUDIOSLAVE’s ‘Cochise’ as a tribute to the late Chris Cornell. They have begun writing new material for their anticipated 3rd album which will be out in 2018.

CROBOT’s sophomore album, ‘Welcome To Fat City’, was released September 23rd 2016 via Nuclear Blast.

About Louise Swift

I first went to a gig in 1981, Gillan at Leeds University. I've been a regular gig goer ever since. I haven't kept count of how many gigs I've been to over the intervening years, but it's a lot! My favourite bands are AC/DC then, in no particular order, Anti-Nowhere League, Slaughter and the Dogs, Towers of London and Dirt Box Disco. I tend to like Glam/Punk and rude offensive lyrics, not sure what that says about me but as Animal would say 'So What!' The question was recently put to me - did I write for any online publications? My reply - No, but I'd like to! Planetmosh was suggested and I found myself offering to review Aces High Festival. Easy peasy I thought! Well not quite, if a jobs worth doing it's worth doing well! I had sixteen bands to research. I found I actually enjoyed that and it kept me too busy to be making lunatic comments on Facebook! ;) Then I felt a bit inadequately qualified. I mean, who am I to comment on others, when my musical expertise extends to being able to play a mean Greensleeves on the recorder and a passable Annie's song on the flute! Haven't picked up either instrument for years! What I do have, however, is over 30 years of experience as a gig goer, so I can comment on what I like and what I don't! It's only my opinion and, if I don't like a band it doesn't mean they are bad, just not to my own liking. I admire anyone who has the guts to get up on that stage and have a go!
