Drunk Robb & The Shots are about a lot of things but surprisingly, given their name, the temperance movement isn't one of them. That doesn't hold them back as someone actually went down my street and wrote one of their songs, "Fed Hill," on several front doors including mine. Pundits like to think a band building momentum is about getting myspace friends but that pales in comparison to having obsessive fans with Sharpies canvassing neighborhoods in my book. The song "Fed Hill" is also notable because it's the only song to borrow the intro riff to "Eye of the Tiger" in recent memory.  As for a sonic comparison, think early Clash meets Black Flag at an Outward Bound campfire that degenerates into a keg party.  There are echoes of some of Drunk Robb's previous bands like The USM and Murphy's Law but really it is just good punk rock drinking music.
