Spectremen is a horror-punk band from Atlanta, GA. USA. Current Line-up inlcudes Dan (vocals), Evil Jim (LOUD guitars), Newell (bass), and the almighty Stench (drums). Their brand of BIG MONSTER ROCK has been described as "guitars as good as Black Label Society and vocals as good as Danzig".
Originally founded in 1997, the Spectremen quickly became a favorite in the Atlanta punk scene due to
Dan's ghoulish crooning and the stage antics of both Newell (called Dr Syn at the time) and Stench and partly because they could do (and often did) a vast number of Misfits and Ramones covers. Between 1999-2003 released 3 albums and an ep on their own Shovel In Your Face Records and appeared on countless compilations.
Fast forwarding to 2005, Evil Jim was recruited to fill the vacant guitar slot. With Evil Jim, the Spectremen's signature sound has evolved once more into a darker, heavier, more metal sound while retaining their punk roots. The fall of 2005 saw the release of Dawn of the Day of the Night of the Living Dead, a four song
ep that included two re-recorded songs and two new songs, and the limited edition Spectre-green vinyl
Tales of the Spectremen, vol. 1.
Since then, the Spectremen have released a ton of show only exclusive singles and eps. They have
appeared on more compliations, most notably Dr Cyclops Records Horror of it All, vol. 2 and Bands of the World Horror Network and Under the Radar, vol. 1 from Antidote Records. They have also filmed their first video, George.
The Spectremen are currently working on Dark Holiday, their 4th studio album, and first to feature the current line-up. Dark Holiday should be released fall of 2007. They are featured on Gris Grimly's short
film Cannibal Flesh Riot DVD/CD project as well as the 3rd installment of the Horror of it All from Dr Cyclops Records.
