Persons
John Robb grew up with punk rock in the late seventies forming his own critically acclaimed band, the Membranes, writing his own fanzine and releasing his own records in the DIY spirit of the movement. The Membranes powerful, abrasive, punk rock noise was very influential on the British and European underground and the band toured the world several times before stopping in the late eighties. Robb then went on to write for the music press, being the first person to interview Nirvana as well as coining key phrases like "Britpop." He then started a new band, Goldblade, who tour the world to this day.
