The Screamers were an American synthpunk group founded in 1975. They were among the first wave of the L.A. punk rock scene. The Los Angeles Times applied the label "techno-punk" to the band in 1978. In the documentary Punk: Attitude (2005), the Dead Kennedys cite the Screamers as a key influence on their group and as one of the great unrecorded groups in rock history.The Screamers developed a substantial following via the internet[citation needed] and generated considerable press coverage during and after the band's career, despite the fact that they never released a record.
