The Dead Boys were a punk rock band that formed in Cleveland, Ohio, in
1975. The group, which evolved out of the band Rocket From The Tombs, was
originally called Frankenstein. When the band members relocated to New York
City in July 1976, they adopted the name by which they are best known.
Formation and 1970s punk rock heyday Moving to New York City at the
encouragement of Joey Ramone, the Ramones' lead singer, the Dead Boys
quickly gained notoriety for their outrageous live performances. Lewd
gestures and profanity were the norm. On more than one occasion, lead
singer Stiv Bators slashed his stomach with his mic stand. They frequently
played at the legendary rock club CBGB and in 1977 they released their
debut album, Young, Loud and Snotty, produced by Genya Ravan. Their song
"Sonic Reducer" is often regarded as one of the classics of the punk genre,
with the All Music Guide calling it "one of punk's great anthems."
