Terminal A is an American synth punk[1] musical duo based in San Pedro, California that formed in 2012.

They have toured nationally, including performances at SXSW[2] and Tulsa Overground Festival and have opened for Sleaford Mods,[3] Chrome,[4] Modern English,[2] and Adult.[5]

Their debut EP, entitled Pacific Water & Power, was released in 2014 on Records Ad Nauseam.[6] In 2015 they released a four-way split on Resurrection Records,[7] and a collaboration with poet/performance artist Sheree Rose.[8] The band has been the subject of features in publications such as Flaunt Magazine[1] and The Fader,[9] as well as being listed by LA Weekly as one of the top 15 bands of 2015.[10]

The Fader has described their sound as "minimal electronic beats with gritty guitar riffs and bellowing vocals. The result is a style that lands somewhere between anarcho-punks Flux of Pink Indians and avant-dance legends Kraftwerk."[9]
