Gold Star for Robot Boy

Something profound

About Me

Given the current trend in the music industry of thrusting generic indie bands into the spotlight on a seemingly arbitrary basis, Gold Star For Robot Boy decided to throw their lot in and see where it took them. Unfortunately so far it hasn't taken them very far.However, with a firm belief that their hastily written songs and electrically indifferent performances are just as average as anything else there is going on at the moment, Gold Star For Robot Boy are resolved to bust everyone's paradigm and literally change the face of music forever.MySpace: http://www.myspace.com/gsfrbWebsite: http://www.gsfrb.co.uk
