Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Synthpunk (also known as electropunk) is a music genre combining elements of electronic rock and punk rock. The term invented by Damian Ramsey in 1999 as an attempt to retroactively identify a small sub-genre of punk music from 1977-1984 that involved musicians playing synthesizers in place of electric guitars. Suicide recorded a first rehearsal tape back in 1975 in which would be considered the first synthpunk recording ever, although a lot of people would consider the first demo session by The Screamers with Pat Garrett in July 7 1977 as the first synthpunk recording. The Screamers were once referred to as "techno-punk" in an article in the Los Angeles Times in 1978 but this did not seem to become established as a genre name. Recent use of the term techno-punk usually refers to Music sequencer dance music or techno music that has punk fashion or performance influences, rather than synthpunk's identification as punk rock being played live on synthesizer keyboards.
