North Atlantic Oscillation's "Hollywood Has Ended", from the forthcoming album Grappling Hooks, is featured in this month's Police Box compilation from TenTracks. It's here:
In case you haven't heard, TenTracks is a new music delivery service where you can buy exclusive 10-track compilations for £1, i.e. a mere 10p per track.
This month NAO are in the illustrious company of the excellent Found, Orkestra Del Sol, Fence Collective luminaries James Yorkston and King Creosote and exactly 5 others. Once again, that's £1 for ALL TEN TRACKS. Not bad, really.
The ROBOTS FROM MARS have a new song, “Spaceship Earth”
“Better plug your ears so that your brains don’t leak out…” Johnny Air Guitar.
Visit their My Space page to experience the #1 song from the Red Planet. The reviews have begun to come in:
“Spaceship Earth is destined to become the worst song of all time!” The Psychic News Network
“Spaceship Earth sounds like it was played by a bunch of drunken robots…” The Snob Blog & Party Hearty Militia
“Can’t wait to jam with the Robots From Mars!” Bill Clinton
“Yuck Yuck…The Robots From Mars sound like Devo on uppers…” George W.
“The Robots From Mars are incredibly boring in a heavy handed low brow sort of way.” Dick Cheney
“Spaceship Earth will take you to a place that you don’t want to go!” Barak Obama
“Just like some Democrats we know,” John McCain
“If you are really really BUZZED and you squint really really hard, the Robots From Mars don’t SOUND half bad,” Bender, “And it shouldn’t matter that they paid me to say that… I still get to keep the money, right?”
“SPACESHIP EARTH” By Some Dumb Robot From Mars
Build yourself up from the ground. When you fall down you rebound. There’s always more than one side. Are you along for the ride?
Trust the friends that you know When you’re caught in the undertow.
This spaceship This blue world That we call home Can we close our eyes like we’re alone?
On the late great planet Earth When we make war what’s love worth? Why choose the grave over life? Hard to make friends with a knife. Care for the people that you know When you’re rockin’ to-and-fro.
This spaceship This blue world That we call home Can we close our eyes like we’re alone?
Is there paradise on the Moon?
Is there Heaven in this world?
Why try harder if there’s destiny? Does God hold us in his hand? This spaceship This blue world That we call home Can we close our eyes like we’re alone? Build yourself up from the ground.

INTERGALLACTIC PROTEST LAUNCHED BY THE ROBOTS FROM MARS!
The Robots From Mars have launched a protest with the Beetlejuice Gaming Commission. The major issue focuses on the disadvantage that metallic robots have when playing Pong since most robots tend to light up when struck by the game ball. “But that all depends on the size of the game ball verses the size of the robot,” the Great Butbot advised, “there’s a proper ratio with these things.” Johnny Air-Guitar, “Getting struck by a ball of light is a real and constant danger…if I light up I’ll give my position away.” Rob “Rainbow” Marley, “I light up if I’m within six feet of a Pong match. I think it is a radiation thing.” “You’d light up anyway,” Johnny Air-Guitar added. “You’re always smoking.” This reporter noted that most of the beings attending the protest in the office of the Beetlejuice Gaming Commission took some of these comments by the Robots From Mars as a joke. But I’m not convinced. I never met a synthetic that had a sense of humor.
ZZ Van Hendrix, “Bowling is even worse than Pong. What robotic ten pin wants to stand around with 9 of his buddies just to get knocked down so that he has to continually pick himself back up again? It’s a senseless stupid ritual! And who gains…some fat old hippie in a tie-dyed T-shirt? Bowling and Pong are both barbaric. They should be outlawed!”

Hello from the Red Planet! May fireworks light up your sky! Sometimes music bounces from inside your head to the next dimension and sometimes it's right in front of you. Just grab the magic and go for broke! I've always prided myself on having a low IQ since I was made with cheap re-processed American parts and a third class robot brain. Did you ever hear a synthetic human spouting philosophy in his underwear? Mickey Microphone the Robots From Mars Checkout our Robomusic and Tall Tale.

PPS ZZ Van Hendrix says that he remembers you from a past lifetime...I think he was a pretzel. PPPS We're building a giant TV-Radio Internet Link on Mars so that we can pick-up your My Space Page. Don't want to miss anything. We’ll be watching you… Who do you think taught Superman to see through walls?
HAPPY BELATED ACROSS THE UNIVERSE DAY!!! From the ROBOTS FROM MARS
Music from Earth has been deliberately launched into space by humankind. Other than attaching a disc to a spacecraft or randomly broadcasting TV and radio signals, the Third Planet has never before attempted to share it’s musical culture with the Heavens. A Beatles song has been beamed out into the galaxy. NASA broadcasted the song, "Across the Universe", through the transmitters of its deep space communications network on the 40th anniversary of the songs recording at London's Abbey Road studios. February 4th also commemorated the space agency's 50th anniversary. The music was converted into digital data and sent on a 431 light year-journey towards Polaris, the North Star. The broadcast began its galactic crossing at 7 p.m. EST/February 4th 2008. Martian Side note: It might take awhile for the flower children around Polaris to respond to this broadcast. They prefer space polkas and hate all forms of technology.
We are delighted to announce that we've decided to release the track 'Sleeping Soldier' as a free MP3 - downloadable when you sign up to our mailing list.
The track was recently picked out by Tom Robinson as the song of the week on his BBC Radio 6 show.
To sign up for the mailing list click on the link from the main myspace page. You will be sent a confirmation email with a link to download the MP3.
If you are already on the mailing list do not panic! We will send out the link to all our existing subscribers ASAP!
