Take a look at the left side of politics.
Now look at the right side.
Now picture four angry punks right in the middle, flipping off both parties.
That's the Dead Kennedys in a nutshell.

The raddest fuckin punk band on the planet. Their best songs are: Police Truck, Soup Is Good Food, MTV Get Off The Air, Riot, Forest Fire, Halloween, and Winnebago Warrior.
Chris Koteras: "DK sucks!"
Justin: "Fuck you, you little bitch! The dead kennedys are so kickass, they single-handedly created the Bay Area punk scene, fought against the PMRC, and had a fun time doin' it. So go suck your moms massive cock, faggot."

Extremely controversial Californian punk rock band. Used satirical and humourous lyrics to express their political views. The Kennedys split in 1986 and the band ensued in a legal tussle with vocalist Jello Biafra over song royalties. An incarnation of the Kennedys still tours today, but without Jello Biafra.
The Dead Kennedys are a real punk band, unlike the Casualties.

A band that definitive of Bay Area punk. It doesn't get any better than this.
The Dead Kennedys are dead without Jello.

The greatest goddamn punk band ever to walk the earth, and proof that all good things must come to an end. Active from the late-70s to mid-80s, the Dead Kennedys consisted of vocalist Jello Biafra, guitarist East Bay Ray, drummer D.H. Peligro, and bassist Klaus Flouride. Producing five studio albums, the Dead Kennedys wrote songs that still ring true in this day and age
