Zombie Squad

Zombie Squad were a US punk band active in the mid to late 80s. Members were Chris Clay (vocals); Tom Rosenthal (gtr); Pete Schmidt (bass); and Ben Rosenthal (drums). They released one 7 inch on Antrax Records in 1987: two of the tracks (I Wouldn't and Nice Try) turned up on the compilation Hyped To Death #31, and Surfing With The Contras on the German compilation Off Limits. Peel picked up on the latter, but there is no record of him playing anything else by the band.
Ben Rosenthal went on to form the slightly more prolific Heartdrops, taking the music in more of a power pop direction. The name Zombie Squad has since been co-opted by both a Dutch hip-hop outfit and a group dedicated to investigating survival techniques in the event of a proliferation of walking dead.
