From the band’s official website:

Forming Kick the Robot in their early teens, the band had a vision of returning a certain raw passion to today’s rock music. “We all grew up listening to music from the late-‘60s and the ‘70s, and there’s a rebellious spirit to that era that really appeals to us.”

With their name signifying a revolt against soullessness in modern music, Kick the Robot are driven by a shared desire to make music that shakes up listeners and defies expectation. “What we love about rock & roll is that it can be so loud and brash and trashy, but still have these great melodies and so much substance.. it goes against every idea of what music’s supposed to be like—but it still just feels so good.”
