THE DUNEDIN SOUND!!

Toy Love was a New Zealand new wave/punk rock band fronted 

by Chris Knox. Other members were guitarist Alec Bathgate, 

bass player Paul Kean, drummer Mike Dooley, and keyboard 

player Jane Walker. The band developed out of the earlier punk 

band The Enemy from Dunedin, New Zealand, and are often 

regarded as the progenitors of the Dunedin Sound movement.


Toy Love were together for less than two years (1978–80) and 

spent a large part of that time in Australia. They released just one 

(self-titled) album, however the band members were apparently 

appalled by the mixing of the tracks which took the edge off the 

band's deliberately raw sound. 


After Toy Love broke up, Bathgate and Knox remained together 

as the Tall Dwarfs.


In 2012, the band was inducted into the New Zealand Music Hall 

of Fame and given the Legacy Award at the Vodafone New 

Zealand Music Awards.
