Crobot Premiere “Trouble (Looking For You)” Video
Crobot have premiered a new video for their song “Trouble (Looking For You).” That track is from the band’s latest album “Supermoon.” The following was said about the single:
“‘Trouble‘ (Looking for You)’ is dirty groove rock in full possession of itself—swaggering, sinister, interstellar, and crawling out of the shadows with a grin. Built on the kind of riff that kicks the door open before asking permission, the song taps into that familiar Crobot voltage: heavy guitars, sweat-soaked soul, and the feeling that chaos isn’t chasing you anymore… it finally caught up. Turn it up. Let trouble find you.”

Keyboardist/vocalist, etc. Walter Flakus added:
