The Lepers are an American punk rock band from Cleveland, Ohio.

History

Based in Cleveland, the Lepers were part of the late-1970s punk scene. A collection of live video recordings dated April 12 1979 from their performance at Pirate’s Cove in The Flats (Cleveland) are held in the archives of the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame Foundation, indicating the band was active at least by that date. :contentReference[oaicite:2]{index=2} According to the Discogs database, the Lepers list the members Al Luminum, Pie Tinn, Richard Redmond and Vic Mature. :contentReference[oaicite:3]{index=3} Last.fm describes them as a “female-fronted punk band from Cleveland… released one 7″ in 1979 called ‘Coitus Interruptus’ on Drome records.” :contentReference[oaicite:4]{index=4} A 2015 blog post characterizes their sound and DIY aesthetic as “punk in its purest form.” :contentReference[oaicite:5]{index=5}

Research Notes & Gaps

- While the video archive from 1979 confirms existence of the band at that time, precise formation date, duration of activity, and later history remain **undocumented**. - The Last.fm entry implies a “female-fronted” description, but none of the member names supplied (Pie Tinn, Al Luminum, Richard Redmond, Vic Mature) are verified as female or male in the sources I found. - The release on “Drome records” is cited in Last.fm, but the label details are unverified through primary label/press sources. - Additional releases, live shows, line-up changes, and story of the band beyond the 1979 EP are **not yet found** in the sources reviewed.
