Dead Boys

Cleveland-born Dead Boys, pioneers of American punk rock, debuted with "Young Loud and Snotty." Notable for raw sound and singer Stiv Bators' wild theatrics, they influenced bands like Guns N' Roses. They toured with Iggy Pop and The Damned, released live albums, and collaborated with artists like the Ramones. Cheetah Chrome and Johnny Blitz celebrated their legacy with a 40th-anniversary tour in 2017.
