If you were to listen to Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros and then immediately move on to Ima Robot's Monument to the Masses you would be very confused. Alex Ebert in Monument sounds nothing like the rock and roll messiah that he is in Edward Sharpe. In fact, the sheer party-friendly poppiness of the album alone might make you want to give up on music all together.That said, Ima Robot's latest effort, Another Man's Treasure is quite amazing. Released in 2010, just one year after Edward Sharpe's Up From Below and four years after Ima Robot's Monument, the maturity and musical genius that Ebert emits is incomparable.
