Spermbirds are a German punk band from Kaiserslautern. Formed in 1982, by the members of the melodic punk rock band Die Walter Elf among American G.I. stationed in Germany, they created a fast hardcore punk group that gained popularity inside as well as outside of Germany. Their most successful album was named Something To Prove mixing influences by many American hardcore punk bands with snotty and furious lyrics.
They split up in 1988, but reformed later in 1990 releasing a number of full-length albums and touring up to this date.
