Background
Background
The label was described by Heavy Magazine as "one of the world's fastest growing independent record labels". It is overseen by Mark Alexander-Erber. According to Alexander-Erber, the name came about when he looked at a small porcelain statue of a gold robot on a speaker and decided that it was the perfect name for the label. The very first release for the label was The Orbitor by the group Moon.
History

As reported by Metal Talk on 22 September 2020, rock band Vanilla Fudge had signed on to Golden Robot Records and were set with an imminent release of "Immigrant Song" and were to have a new album out the following year.

Australian band Leadfinger, originally from Wollongong, New South Wales, had their Silver & Black album released on the label in 2022. In 2023, the label issued the Ala Mai album by Shepherds Reign.
