Max Frost and the Troopers were a fictional rock music group created for the exploitation film Wild in the Streets, released in 1968.
The band name "Troopers" is based on the term "troops", the designation Frost used in the film to refer to his friends and followers.
A studio group (or possibly The 13th Power) appeared on the soundtrack album for the film, along with incidental music penned by Cynthia Weil and Barry Mann and composed by Les Baxter; however, the songs were not originally credited to Max Frost and the Troopers, but rather to The 13th Power.
The soundtrack album for the 1968 film The Glory Stompers, starring Dennis Hopper, contains two additional songs credited to Max Frost and the Troopers: "There's A Party Going On" (which was released as their first single) and "You Might Want Me Baby".
Cultural historian Greil Marcus borrowed the Troopers' song title for his 2006 book "The Shape of Things to Come: Prophecy & The American Voice".
