Plastic Eaters were formed in Philadelphia, United States in early 1996 as a creative venture between Stan Stammers and vocalist Rob Daly. Stammers was formerly bass player with bands Theatre of Hate and later Spear of Destiny. James Atkin the lead singer from EMF and an old friend of Stan's was originally approached to sing for the band, but it didn't transpire. The band regularly used samples, loops and even DJ's to enhance their popular sound.

Between 1996 and 2004 the Eater's regularly played throughout Philadelphia, New York and New Jersey, with the occasional detour to Los Angeles. They also produced and re-mixed other artists too, which include Pretty Poison, Josh Wink, Ani DiFranco, D Generation, Rocket from the Crypt, and Incognegro.

Plastic Eaters were also made the 35mm short film ".357-11". Written and directed by Robdaly, the film stars Robdaly, Stan Stammers and Sean Money in acting roles and features Plastic Eaters' music. The short has been screened at film festivals ranging from TromaDance and The LA International Short Film Festival, to The NY International Film Festival.
