On their new album, Two Wheels Move the Soul, Robber Robber draw inspiration from a moment of real instability, shaping it into something restless but controlled. Written and recorded after the sudden loss of Nina Cates (vocals/guitar) and Zack James' (percussion) longtime home, the album carries a sense of disruption in its core. There’s displacement running through it, and reflects a life shaped by decisions made elsewhere, by forces that remain distant but decisive.
The Sound It Made, the album’s opening track, begins without buildup, dropping into motion and letting its details surface as it goes. Lines move between the ordinary and the abstract, like fragments of thought that circle around something harder to define.
The accompanying video, directed by Wes Sterrs, places the band in a stark industrial setting, reinforcing the album’s atmosphere without overstating it.
"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" Robber Robber say of their new offering.
