Tribe After Tribe was formed in Johannesburg, South Africa, in 1984 by guitarist Robbi Robb, formerly of Asylum Kids. The band released their debut album, Power, which showcased new-wave influences, in 1985. Shortly after, circumstances led the band to relocate to Los Angeles.
Following a six-year hiatus, Tribe After Tribe re-emerged in 1991 with their self-titled album, Tribe After Tribe. This release marked a significant shift, featuring an entirely new lineup and a sound that blended experimental tribal African music with powerful alternative rock. Throughout the 1990s, Robb continued to explore this direction, releasing two more albums: Love Under Will in 1993 and Pearls Before Swine in 1997. The latter featured notable guest appearances from Joey Vera (Armored Saint), Doug Pinnick (King's X), and Jeff Ament (Pearl Jam). In parallel, Robb collaborated with Ament on the side project Three Fish, which released two albums in 1996 and 1999.
