this is xerostratus, a southern california-based noise movement rife with absurdism and punk fervor. boredom and discontent fuel an array of different sounds and arrangements.
Band/artist history
suede? formed in Mrs. Martin's senior International Baccelaureate English class, following many in-class discussions of existentialism and absurdism. two years later, summer of 2005, suede? recorded their demo/e.p. entitled 'absurd rebellion'. the six, somewhat hastily arranged songs show the band's talent, but belie the true power and noise of the band.
Have you performed in front of an audience?
xerostratus has yet to play an actual venue, but has hosted several shows of its own in our practice space, as well as the new years party of 2005. our philosophy: free concert... keep big business out of it.
