Flobots is an experimental rap rock band from Denver, Colorado, formed in 2005 by Jamie Laurie. The band's origins date back 5 years earlier to a similar project by Laurie. Flobots found mainstream success with their major label debut Fight with Tools (2007), featuring the single "Handlebars", which became a popular hit on Modern Rock radio in April 2008. The band has released four studio albums and one EP, with their latest Noenemies being released in May 2017.

After the release of Onomatopoeia, the project went on a hiatus. In 2005, Laurie reformed the project under the name The Flobots. Joining Laurie was MC/vocalist Stephen "Brer Rabbit" Brackett, bassist Jesse Walker, guitarist Andy Guerrero, trumpet player Joe Ferrone, Viola player Mackenzie Gault, and drummer Kenny Ortiz. Guerrero and Ferrone were previously in the band Bop Skizzum together. With a revamped lineup, Flobots released their debut EP under the new name Flobots Present...Platypus, which went on to sell more than 3,000 copies over the next two years.

The origins of the Flobots project started in 2000, when Jamie "Jonny 5" Laurie teamed with producer Farhad Ebrahimi, a.k.a. Yahktoe. Together they released Onomatopoeia in 2001, and the title track ended up in a compilation by the MIT Songwriting Club at Yahktoe's alma mater. The title track featured guitar player David Gralow, cello player Terrence Favors, and bass player Jaymz Haynes.
