The Trouble With Robots

The Trouble With Robots is BTR's 5th album.

The Trouble With Robots examines the marriage of technology and biology: the irresistible process that will eventually culminate in the development of an artificial intelligence smarter than humankind. This may very well happen within our lifetimes. Some postulate it will be doomsday for all we know and cherish. Others propose it will be the commencement of a new golden era of enlightenment and creativity leading us to a profound connection with the infinite. Selfishly, we prefer the latter scenario over the former.

Curiously, and typically for us humans, we seem to be mostly oblivious to the possible endpoints of this evolution despite its rapid increase in speed and scope. Glued to our mobile devices, our new gateway drugs, we meander through the day, blissfully unaware as the nurses of science silently slip the needle into our veins.

Mankind and machine-kind are destined to merge. There isn't really any turning back.

As such, we figured we might as well provide the soundtrack.
