In 1998, he formed a band in San Francisco when Peter, a high school student at the time, met Robert. After that, as a drummer, Nic Jago, who had just arrived from U.K., was named "Ge Elements", but he discovered that there was already a band of the same name, and renamed the Black Level Motorcycle Club. The early album features classical hard rock that smells red Zeppelin, and psychedelic rock-like sounds reminiscent of The Vav, Sonic Youth, and Jesus and Mary Chain. Robert, whose father is Michael Bean, the vocalist of the U.S. rock band The Call, hiding it at the beginning of the band. But after that, his father Michael was accompanied by the tour as a sound crew of the BRMC, and Robert also opened his relationship. The persuade between the drummer Nic and the band has been whispered since around 2003, and Nic has often stopped and returned, but finally left in 2008. Later, Ria Chapiro, who had previously worked as a tour drummer for the Danish band The Levonetz, officially joined as a new drummer for BRMC. BRMC decided to leave the major label from the previous work "Beet the devil's Tattoo" released in March 2010, and to release it from Indi, but in August of the same year, he was hit by a tragedy when he appeared at a Belgian music festival. In the backstage just after the performance, Robert's father, Michael, had a heart attack and became unreturned. After that, the band's live DVD, released in October, was the last piece Michael's involvement with BRMC as a mixer.
