Robert The Record
Robert emerged from the ashes of anarchic punk collective ?Fog, active in Auckland's underground scene from 1984. Originally formed by Roger Allen and Lindsay McKay, and later joined by vocalist Sam Swan, the group thrived in the chaos of The Red House_a hub for experimental art and music. Known for confrontational performances and a fluid lineup, they released a 7" EP in 1985 before rebranding as Robert. With support from the Queen Elizabeth II Arts Council, they recorded and self-released 'Robert The Record' in 1986. This 40th anniversary reissue includes a 16-page full color booklet of photos and an interview conducted by Stuart Page (THE AXEMEN) with band members Roger Fogorelli and Lindsay Fog. Plus, a reprint of the bonus questionnaire that was included in the original release.
