Robert Johnson & Punchdrunks formed in 1992 with influences from early sixties instrumental music and roots in the Swedish garage rock (where you can find bands like The Nomads)
but had considerably more in common with Link Wray and Dick ”Pulp Fiction” Dale.
Their first record, recorded in a studio, ”Feels like Buzz Aldwin”, was recorded in Mono.
But after having met with Thomas Öberg and Jonas Jonasson in bob hund, they were persuaded to record in Stereo.
Thomas Öberg produced the EP ”Rocket True Temper” and the collaboration went on with the album ”Fried on the alter of good taste”.
