There's something goin' on with Golden Robot. Other bands have had issues with them giving an advance and then trying to get it back.

RLS? Coming in to save the day???

[HueyRamone]

Maybe they shipped all the CDs to Riley.

Maybe they shipped all the CDs to Riley.

I just asked a few people of value... about this label...

And oddly... I immediately got 3-4 replies, ALL bad... ALL not good... ALL having issues with them.

Sounds like it's not a singular issue with just 1 band... oh well... anyone who is working with this label, be prepared to get F#@ked over!

John Sykes's album release was scrapped due to back-and-forth with them.

I assumed it was Sykes being a pain in the ass, but given these other issues there was probably some truth to it.

I don’t get it why didn’t Riley just sign with Taylor Swift label?
They don’t seem to have problems

[Ozzy Stradlin]

Supposedly that’s been resolved:

I remember a few years ago there was an announcement that the band King's X had signed with Golden Robot. But when they finally released their newest album, it was on a different label, with no mention of ever being on that label. Wonder if there's some dirt there?

[LAglamrocker]

You really can’t blame Golden Robot records they were shocked to see 7 pre orders come in the inbox. Now they had problem -had to actually get product made and shipped.
Glad this got resolved.
Jason Green should interview the 7 people that ordered them on his show

From wiki: "The band signed a world-wide record deal on October 8, 2018, with Australian independent record label, Golden Robot Records, who had planned to release their new album in the U.S, Australia and Europe sometime in 2019;[41] however, the project's release had faced myriad delays within the next few years, due to COVID-related manufacturing issues as well as the slow progress of the band working on the album".

I see mention of King's X, and yes... this is one of the bands I heard had issues with Golden Robot.

Chuck Mcfind Count Little Caesar in on that list of folks that got ghosted quite quickly. Great promises and little delivery after a quick burst and then forgotten. Using one band to entice another band to sign on as if there must be credibility in the promises made. But when every single band has serious complaints, I would beware.""""""""""""""

Another comment adds:
""""""Chuck Mcfind
Skid Row, John Sykes, Minefield, Kings X, Puddle of Mudd, and several others are some of the notable bands that have left the label and seemingly not been allowed to talk about anything.
The fact they ignored Kelly and the boys emails for weeks but magically appear the second something bad gets said about them online should speak miles.""""""""

And this as well:
"""""""Jay Rusnak
Sykes had plenty to say (for him) and it all basically echoed the crap Kelly's detailing now. They may as well be called Black Hole Records."""""""

Where there is smoke, there is fire... just sayin'
