Dead Kennedys was a legendary punk band hailing from San Francisco, formed in 1978 and fronted by Jello Biafra (Eric Boucher). They split up in the mid-80s, and there has been animosity between Jello and the rest of the band since the late ’90s, with recent court case awarding all the rights to all the songs to the rest of the band.
