Guitarist Robert “Dr. Bob” Nielsen died of a heroin overdose on February 22, 2003. After Dr. Bob’s death, The Vindictives released a pair of records containing material previously unavailable on CD and two new re-recordings; Muzak for Robots which was quirky electronic instrumental versions of their songs and Unplugged soft and toned-down acoustic versions of their works. The Razorcake review read “This really is muzak. No, really”.
