45rpm 7 inch single with the large hole in the center with a red label. An original release from 1976 by the all black punk band from Detroit called Death.ALTERNATIVE SOUNDS Punk rock sprouted across the United States in the 1970s and 1980s. Though black faces in the audiences were often few and far between, African Americans played an important role in the creation of punk rock. Death from Detroit is often cited as the first band in the punk genre. Pure Hell stunned audiences with their brazen look and sound, and Bad Brains were fixtures of the D.C. hardcore punk scene. These bands undermined easy generalizations about both rock musicians and rock music.
