About Me

..This profile was edited with MySpace Profile Editor MySpace Profile Editor
Be afraid of The Rabies, be very afraid...
The sweet and syrupy powerful vocals of Lexi Lawsuit (often compared to Siouxsie Sioux), combined with catchy yet haunting guitar melodies, spooky keyboards, and the steady throbbing rhythmic percussion...it's horror pop cabaret that packs a punch.
Hailing from the underbelly of Buffalo NY, The Rabies emerged in 2003 and acquired a faithful following, all claiming to have been "infected" by the new buzz. With their concoction of pop, new wave, punk, and in-you-face rock-n-roll, The Rabies aren't here for a campfire sing along...they are here to wake the dead!
They might just do that...their first demo album entitled "Get Infected!!!" was recorded in the attic of a haunted house. It received air play across radio stations in Great Britain, Spain, France, Australia, and the US. It debuted at number 21 on the 'Most Played Albums' list at Three D Radio 93.7 FM in Australia, ranked at number 6 on MP3.com, and number 1 Gothic genre (NY) on Myspace.com.
Their much anticipated second album entitled "Night Terror" is set to be released in August of 2008. Offering a higher production value than its predecessor, songs like "Vampyre's Kiss", "Eleanor", "Domination of the Dead", and "Ghost in the Graveyard" keep fans on the edge of their seats, addicted to the rewind button.
Since they materialized on the scene, The Rabies have toured the US extensively and have shared the stage with such bands as The Buzzcocks, The Dickies, The Adicts, Wilco, The Murder Junkies, The Saints, The Koffin Kats, Trashlight Vision, The Voodoo Glow Skulls, DOA, The Gore Gore Girls, Slaughter and the Dogs, Penis Flytrap, Billy Talent and more. They also joined 45 GRAVE for two tours in both the Spring and the Fall of 2006.
They have worked with Goo Goo Doll Robby Takac's "Music Is Art" organization, and currently have endorsements with Coffin Case, Trash Queen Clothing, and Hot Picks USA.
No matter how much you dare to resist, they will infect you...The Rabies are contagious.
