Screeching Weasel is an American punk band from Chicago, Illinois. They were formed in 1986 by Ben Weasel (aka Ben Foster who also used to be a columnist for the punk fanzine Maximum Rocknroll) and John Jughead (aka John Pierson). The band gained prominence in the early 1990s after signing to East Bay punk label, Lookout! Records and are cited to be a major influence over many bands playing that style of punk music.
Through the years, the band went through many line-up changes

[Notes] * The lead is a single note, struck once and bent. Usually it is a C#, played at the 9th fret on the high E, but after the second chorus there is a brief key change, at which time it is a D#, played at the 11th fret on the high E. * pmf = rest your picking palm across the strings and strike the chord up and down, creating a "palm-mute/feedback" sound.
