THE REPULSATORS.(Official site)

They had to fill the basement with something, so Chris wrote a bunch of songs. Initially Rex was to play guitar, but he doesn't have any talent. He chose the bass instead. "Girl bass players are funny, the way they have to look at their little hands to play," he says.Actually, as everyone in the band for a time was playing an instrument they'd just picked up, initial reports of early Repulsator shows were legendary. That is, they sucked legendarilly. Indeed, it would seem that scads of slimey Euro-trash "Punk Rock" promoters and hyperventilating scene weasels alike were unimpressed.However, whether by raw determination or just basic stupidity, the Repulsators have kept at it, and very impressively we might add. "We're very impressed with our status as The Most Determinedly Stupid Band In Chicagoland and take it very seriously," says Chris. "We'll never win the popularity contests that other guys concern themselves with. And frankly, that pisses us off. We've always wanted to be liked for what we're not."Though it's not to say the sound of the Repulsators is indescribable, don't expect the Repulsators to mindlessly regurgitate a slew of band names when trying to describe their sound. Fuck you, you terminal bore. The Repulsators' sound can reasonably be described as that of the last 50 years. It's that simple, and so are you.The Repulsators are especially happy with Les Paul guitars.
