Like The Damned, the band’s oeuvre includes purist three chord punk alongside more nuanced gothic rock pieces.And similar to kindred souls in bands like The Dark and Siekiera, Screaming Dead’s early aggressive approach gave way, later in their career, to a more measured and atmospheric gothic sound. In newer dark punk groups like Lost Tribe and Deathcharge the influence of Screaming Dead is palpable. Show more
