Downset

As the original blenders of rap, funk, hardcore, punk, metal, and socially aware lyrics, they drew influences from Black Flag to Black Sabbath, Public Enemy to Bob Marley. Becoming a huge draw, the industry took notice and they caught the attention of Mercury/PolyGram Records and released their self titled debut in 1994.

The Absolute

Inspired by the eastern philosophy of “the absolute”, a concept in which a divine reality exists that transcends everyday being and ordinary life, the Absolute has embarked on a journey to inspire people to awaken their social consciousness. At age eight, lead singer Phil Ross knew he was destined for something greater in life. Raised in Orange County, CA, Phil studied music and theatre. Inspired heavily by Bill Medley (The Righteous Brothers), Brian Wilson, and Black Francis (The Pixies), he developed the skills he needed to one day have his voice heard. Yet, he was a band of one.
