Ben Weasel (born Ben Foster in Chicago, Illinois) was the lead singer of punk rock band Screeching Weasel, as well as The Riverdales. He was also a columnist for MAXIMUM ROCKNROLL, a prominent punk rock fanzine.
In recent years he has released one solo album (Fidatevi, Lookout! Records) and written a novel and a collection of essays and articles, Like Hell (2001) and Punk is a Four Letter Word (2002). They were both published by Hope and Nonthings, a small publishing house based in Chicago and run by former bandmate John "Jughead" Pierson.
Weasel had a fanzine called Panic Button. He also started a record label by that name in 1997 with Screeching Weasel guitarist Jughead, which they sold to Lookout Records in 2001.
