016 -- The Misfits: Jersey Teenagers from Mars
The horror punk band The Misfits was born in Lodi, NJ in 1977 and became one of the most enduring and influential punk bands of the Long Seventies. Their unique blend of violence, angst, b-movie horror lyrics, stage costumes, and one of a kind songwriting and instrumentation made them relevant and attractive to fans long after they originally broke up in 1983.
