Absentee

Absentee emerges well-versed in the rigors of romance with their finest album to date, Victory Shorts. Finding a seat between unreachable romanticism and hopeless realism, Victory Shorts offers lush mini romantic tragedies for those who thought Casablanca ended a little too abruptly. Opener "Shared" sets the scene with a couple pleased as punch that they found each other, until things take a darker turn with Absentee smashing their way through "Boy, Did She Teach You Nothing," latest EP title-track "Bitchstealer," and "Love Has Had Its Way" in an attempt to get to the truth of the matter: Happy endings don't come easy.

Schmotime album by Absentee was released Aug 29, 2006 on the Memphis Industries label. Debut full-length from Brit indie-country-rock quintet follows up their 2005 'Donkey Stock' mini-album. Schmotime music CDs Spinning folky tales of love, loss and elegant debauchery over a backdrop of steel guitar, keyboards, harmonica, sweet backing vocals and the occasional stab of distortion.
