The Stalin (ザ・スターリン, stylized as THE STALIN) were a Japanese punk rock band formed in June 1980, by leader and vocalist Michiro Endo.[1] After numerous member changes, he disbanded the group in February 1985.[1] In May 1987 Michiro formed a group called Video Stalin, which mostly made videos instead of albums; they disbanded in 1988.[1] In 1989 Michiro created a new band named Stalin and continued to make music with them until 1993.[1]
