A rock trio with a distinctly AC/DC/ZZTop/Bonamassa edge to their sound they played a fabulous blend of their own material from their debut album 'Issues', which CPiB recommends you spend ACTUAL MONEY on*, along with the usual covers, which included a roaring Hendrix medley, to bulk out the set the band comprise Two Legged Bass Thing Ben Gardner, drummer Doug Lang and ace guitarist Joe Fawcett.
The group have a fabulously 'full' sound(trios can sometime sound a bit threadbare I find) with the solid rhythm section laying down rock-steady foundations for Joe's laid-back-yet-nifty guitar work and vocals.
The night was notable for three things:
1) The discovery of a new 'how good are the band' index. Which basically goes as follows - the quality of the band laying is directly proportion to how much grumbling The Fat Guitarist does about them. This particular night, he was yellow carded after shouting some distinctly rude things at the band.
2) The Lovely Sam's birthday. Many glasses of Bailey's were consumed.
3) What a smashing night, cheers fellas, hope to see you again soon.
* - You can purchase Absolution's album 'Issues' either at their gigs or through their website.
