After many changes of training Thomas met the guitarist and composer Peter Laughner of the Cinderella Backstreet [3] . The two musicians soon joined O’Connor, the bassist Craig Bell and the drummer Johnny “Madman” Madansky [3] . Thanks to a musical style influenced by Stooges and Lou Reed, the complex quickly made a name in the Cleveland scene, also opening up for groups such as Iron Butterfly [3] . However, the group had short -lived, in part because the components did not bear Thomas’s singing style, in part because the latter and Laughner tended more and more towards art rock [3] . To solve the singer’s problem, Bators was hired, but the new formation did not last long [3] . Meanwhile Laughner met Lester Bangs and moved to New York to work on Believe and to follow the nascent punk scene of the Big Apple [3] . Impressed by the music of Television and Patti Smith returned to Cleveland, but found the band still divided on the musical direction to be undertaken [3] . A few weeks later the complex melted [3] When the RFTTs melted, O’Connor and Madansky joined the Bators’ singer to form the Frankenstein, who later changed its name to Dead Boys, while Laughner and Thomas formed the Ubu pears with the bassist Tim Wright (former Rocket’s audio technician From the tombs) [3] .        (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});after-content-x4Both groups used songs already written or played by the Rocket from the Tombs as part of their repertoires: the Dead Boys used Ain’t It Fun , What Love Is , Down in Flames , Caught With the Meat in Your Mouth It is Sonic Reducer , while the Ubu pears reinterpreted Final Solution , Life Stinks It is 30 Seconds Over Tokyo . Dead Boys [ change | Modifica Wikitesto ] Arrived in New York on the encouragement of Joey Ramone, the Ramones singer, the Dead Boys quickly gained notoriety by virtue of their unleashed and outrageous live performances. The raw and provocative performance and the attitudes outside the normal and strongly self -harmful batters (big fan of Iggy Pop and her “wild style”) and the submicists of the guitarist Cheetah Chrome were era. By now masters of a reputation of rock deviations, the four Dead Boys brought to the extreme the directives of the first wave of the US punk: the rock rough, fast, and frastly of the Ramones, the air of pervert of the New York Dolls, the depression existential television and the “torn” look at Richard Hell. The group thus became synonymous with pure violence, according to those who were emerging like the salient features of the punk of British matrix that came from overseas. They often played in the legendary Rock Club of New York, the CBGB , and in 1977 their first album came out, Young, Loud and Snotty , produced by Genya Ravan. The song that opens the disc, Sonic Reducer , is often indicated today as one of the classics of the punk rock genre, considered “one of the greatest punk hymns ever written”. [4] Dissolution [ change | Modifica Wikitesto ] After the production of a second little success album, We Have Come for Your Children (1978), the Sire Records, a manufacturer of the Dead Boys, forced the group to change their look and the sound to sweeten their musical proposal a little and make it more attractive to the American public who still did not follow the punk as In England it already happened, and it was also for this reason that the band melted in 1979. [5] Various performances of 1979 are visible in the 1980 film entitled D.O.A.: A Rite of Passage . A few months after the dissolution of the group, the band was forced to gather occasionally to affect a live album and keep faith with its contractual obligations. To take revenge on the Sire Records, Bators boots intentionally sang out of the microphone, and the recordings could not be used. When in 1981 the material finally emerged on the Bomp label! Records, Bators re-recorded the vocal traces in the studio. Following the dissolution of the Dead Boys, Cheetah Chrome played in New York City (mostly al Max’s Kansas City ) performing with the group of Stilettos, and also with his own band Cheetah Chrome and the casualties. He recorded a single for the Ork Records, Still Wanna Die\/Take Me Home , produced by the co -founder of the Atlantic Records Herb Abramson. Shortly later, he played in the solo album of Ronnie Spector debut entitled Siren . Subsequently it appeared in several recordings during the eighties, such as “Cheetah Chrome and the Ghetto Dogs” (the song Get Hip ) e in I Kill Me di Jeff Dahl (Sympathy For The Record Industry).        (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});after-content-x4Reunion [ change | Modifica Wikitesto ] The Dead Boys returned together to carry out several concerts during the eighties. In 1989 the band re-republished their epochal debut album Young, Loud and Snotty of 1977 in “hardest” version and with a rough mixing reintrising it Younger, Louder and Snottier . The new mix was obtained from a cassette ribbon of a first preliminary mixing of the original sessions, attributed to the young Bob Clearmountain, at the time study assistant. Bators’ death in 1990 put the word to the band’s future projects. Reunion RFTT [ change | Modifica Wikitesto ] In 2003 the Rocket from the Tombs reformed with the original Thomas, Chrome and Bell components, together with Richard Lloyd (guitar), and Steve Mehlman (drums) [3] . On June 10, 2003 they played their first live concert on the radio in Brian Turner’s program on WFMU [6] . In 2004, the smog veil records published Rocket Redux , containing the original songs played live by the 2003 formation.In 2006 Thomas announced that the band had gathered again, and in the same year the RFFTs shot the US on tour. In 2009 the group contributed to Mark Mulcahy’s album Ciao My Shining Star , while in 2010 he published the new single I Sell Soul [7] . ^  Mark Deming, Cheetah Chrome: Biography . are Allmusic.com , Allmusic.
