Roger Miret (born June 30, 1964)[1] is the vocalist for New York Hardcore band Agnostic Front [2] as well as the street punk group Roger Miret and the Disasters,[3] and the hardcore band The Alligators. He was born in Cuba.

Agnostic Front is considered to be one of the bands that created New York hardcore. Miret was incarcerated on a drug charge in the late 1980s.[4] He is also the older half-brother of Madball spearhead, Freddy Cricien.
