Bank Robber Music Compilation: Volume 35 - Spring 2013 is a compilation of songs released by Bank Robber Music in 2013.

Description[edit]

Bank Robber Music is a 3rd-party licensing company and record label affiliated with Rough Trade. They distribute songs from their clients for use in media projects such as TV, movies, and advertising.[1] This album, which is a part of their quarterly promotional compilation series that served to advertise their bands, features You're On Fire.

Excerpt from the liner notes of the album:

Bringing both parents and children alike to the dance floor, They Might Be Giants are back with their 17th (yup) full-length album. Nanobots (Idlewild) finds the Johns (both Linnell and Flansburgh) up to their usual tricks as Mensa-smart quirk-pop bounds from your speakers. To say that TMBG have seen their fair share of popularity is like saying that the internet has a passing interest in these new Star Wars movies. If you didn't know someone in college with a TMBG poster on their dorm room wall, then you didn't go to college. Their second grown-ups album in a row (take THAT children!) is full of the angular energy that we have all come to love and expect from the guys. Everyone always says that the Rolling Stones are the most resilient band of all time, but did they put out an album half as good as Nanobots 30+ years into their career? (You Got Me Rocking? Come on!) Check out the combustible heads of "You're On Fire."
