'Ha Ha Ha,' Team RobespierreFrom 2008's 'Everything's Perfect'
"I'm not looking for a job, I just wanna be a heartthrob!"
Don't we all.
Brooklyn punk band Team Robespierre give new meaning to the word energy. They play tasty, saccharine pumped songs .At a recent Brooklyn show on the F! Yeah Tour, I saw firsthand even more of the vivacious energy I'd heard and read about. Team Robespierre's lead singer crawled all over the drums, his bandmates and the crowd. It was visceral. I had my camera and stopped taking pictures so that I could help hold his legs up.
The band's 10-song album 'Everything's Perfect,' which is just over 17 minutes long, feels like the longest rollercoaster ride you've ever taken. And it is.
One turn on that ride is 'Ha Ha Ha,' which plates up classic fun and these guys know just how to serve it. Clocking in at just 1:30, I love this song. It makes me feel ... alive. In the bands simple terms, "I just want to breathe oxygen."
