 Breakout song May 26, 2008
C. Fox (Denver CO)
4 out of 5 found this review helpful
I recently moved out to denver where I first heard the flobots breakout single "handlebars." I was blown away and was excited to hear that they were being signed to universal records. Their brand of unsynthesized hip hop/rap is something thats missing in todays mainstream. Instead of shallow "Donk" or "Love in this club" like lyrics, with the flobots handlebars comes an almost poetic song about human achievements, of all kinds. The flobots brand of politically charged lyrics is not for everyone, but if your looking for a rap song that actually has live instruments, and lyrics that aren't just about luda's wealth or how many ho's soulja boy has supermaned lately, then I highly recomend this incredibly well written and catchy song.
 This is the wrong version. May 8, 2008

Something is messed up with this mp3, because it's almost an instrumental with the vocals barely audible. Perhaps I should have listened to the samples, because buyer beware, this is the wrong mix. Oh well, 89 cents down the drain.
 Almost ruined by overproduction April 15, 2008
JonasK (Dallas, TX)
This is a really great song, but I think it was almost completely ruined by being overproduced. It's almost frustrating for me to listen to it now since I've heard the other version that is more raw and full of life. This one feels more artifical. Do a search on YouTube for the other version and then listen to the track on their MySpace page. I think you can really tell the difference.
