Description
Formed in time for the 7th grade Bay Trail Middle School Talent show, The Absolutes illustrious career has lasted roughly 5 years. In that time, The Absolutes have been kicking booty and taking names like only the dirtiest of garage bands can do.
Despite what outsiders may view as an intensely hostile relationship between the members of The Absolutes, Alex, Alex, Schuyler and Keenan are joined by a love for the sounds of the 60's...and video games. The synergy between these talented high school seniors is almost too much to handle; original songs flow from the brains of The Absolutes faster than snot from a sneezing nose!
Unfortunately for their fans, The Absolutes are often bogged down by extraneous activities such as schoolwork and girlfriends and therefore recording and gigging must play second fiddle. Nevertheless, The Absolutes are making time to put together a new EP, set for release at a date to be announced in the next few months.
Though their members and names have changed many times (if you remember seeing a concert by The U.S. Kings, The Daltons, Pretty Boy Floyd, Vikings of a Lost Space Frontier or Dinosaur Pancake Party, you're in the right place here) The Absolutes always impart a big helping of funk to their fans at every show. If you're in the mood for a rollicking good time, come see the Absolutes live! |
