Album Notes

Described by Outmusic's Jon Gilbert Leavitt as "the wackiest electronic duo since the Flying Lizards", Rubberlegs loves to birth waveforms on stage for all to sizzle in. They've been honing their live show since 2001, following a surprise hit on MP3.com's New Wave chart where songs "China Too" and "People Who Talk in Elevators" were in the Top 5 for weeks.

Now with new third 'leg Anthony on electronic drums, Rubberlegs' number becomes 660, a collective Kinsey 4. The live experience is careering headfirst into new territory with harder-hitting 'tude and in-your-face sonics. Devo gets a Chicks-On-Speed makeover. Says Peg, "We couldn't find a musical genre that adequately describes what we do, so we had to create our own! ALT.TRONICA. It's not just a newsgroup, it's a floor wax AND a dessert topping!" Don't be caught with your pants down when sex, as we know it, becomes obsolete.

Bringing back the future, in January 2006: brand-new maxi-single "The Timinator" ushers in the new year, with the armageddon angels in the intro to the "Tim's Toms Mix" heralding a new sound and a new beginning for the band. Rubberlegs continues to perform in and around their home base, New York City, and in such far-flung places as West Virginia and Austin, Texas. True to their live roots, they play without any backing tracks or drum machines: every sound you hear at a Rubberlegs show originates directly from their own fingers and voices. This is well evidenced by the inclusion of two live tracks on the new CD - especially their perennial crowd-pleaser, a cover of the '80s gem from Our Daughter's Wedding, "Lawnchairs."

Peg - synth/voc
Bun - synth/voc
Ant - edrums

Can't get it outta my head...
author: Aaron-Carl
When I first heard The Timinator, I immediately thought to myself, "Oh sh**... this will permanantly get stuck in my brain." To this day, it still is. It's one of those songs that you can't help but hum the chorus to. If I were Tim, I'd be blushing right about now... (Slugger with a big hard bat!) Mind you, the references to the TERMINATOR seem a bit dated, but so what. The damn song is catchy... I like it. LOTS. XOXOXO Aaron-Carl

Happy! Peppy! and Bursting With Energy!
author: Allan Walker and Tom Campbell
From the moment you hear that quirky synth sound in the beginning of Timinator, you know that you're in for something different. And this CD doesn't disappoint you. Full of imagination, full of fun, and it's good, too! Listening to this CD is like getting lost in a synth pop amusement park. Fun, Fun, Fun!!!

Never disappointing and always exciting, Rubberlegs does it again!
author: Len Rogers StoneWall Society / OutVoice
Think Devo and David Bowie meet a Flock of Seagulls and are piloted away by Debbie Harry to the planet Alt.tronica. Sounds over the top, flashy, and lyrically intense? It is, and that IS RUBBERLEGS: "The Timinator: Boyfriends, Vol. 1". The sound, the energy, the double entendre all have a surreal and down right contagious energy. Forget about 80's influences, Rubberlegs takes you to a new dimension of that sound. Not a further exploration of what was, but instead what is. And that is a good thing! For it is Rubberlegs on point, charged, and ready to make you a fan. And you know what? You WILL be glad they did. Len Rogers www.stonewallsociety.com www.outvoice.net

This girl loses herself in this music. Thanks Gordon +
author: PiercePress.com
Through Timinator and Legwarmers, Rubberlegs offer original, surprising music that makes me want to get up & dance right here in my suburban Mass. home office, in my 50's, surrounded by kids and all the trimmings. I've followed Gordon & co. from the time he & Bob were writing "People Who Talk in Elevators" and I'm grateful they knocked on my musical door again to take my mind out to that aesthetosphere where I seldom go on a daily basis any more. And I miss Bob too; I am glad he lives on in this music. Lots of love & good luck to all! xoxoxo Charlotte
