Description
Fantasy Controller is a four-peice indie-rock group featuring piano/synth, guitar, bass, and drums and are known for combining many styles of popular music including screamo, indie, rock, funk, jazz, and piano/synth-rock.

Each member of Fantasy Controller is under 21 and still in High School, or just starting College, but that dosen't mean that they won't rock your face off. Fans keep coming back for more and more to see them live and experience the rock themselves, and maybe see Nate jump-kick off a few things.

They have a demo entitled "Nice Armor, Bad Helmet" coming out by October, and a full length which will be released by November at the very latest.

History
Fantasy Controller was formed out of the ashes of Modest Method / Second Star, and A Bird Called Pinky / Drumorgasmfantasticyouloveit!, and played they're first show on Halloween in 2003. They had only been a band for two weeks at that time. They're one year anniversary show is on October 30th in Canandaigua, NY. I suggest you not miss that.
