Obsoletes

About Me

+++++UPDATE++++++ I mixed some more songs, some of them are on this site.+++++OLD NEWS: What the hell have the Obsoletes been up to??? Not updating their real website....playing a fair amount of show around Wisconsin. Recording 9 new tracks in Oshkosh, justin's dads garage, justin's house and a few other top secret locations........it might be an EP, it might end up being a full length, only time will tell what happens...a few songs will be posted here once they are mixed. In other recording news, the band recorded an albums worth of Bob Dylan covers with Rev. Norb from Boris The Sprinkler and they are being released on a CD coming out August 23rd on Alternative Tentacles Records and is titled Nob Dylan and His Nobsoletes- "Positively 12 Stiff Dylans!" The cd will also have a video on it. Right now it is hard to get ahold of our debut full-length called "Is This Progress?" on 145 Records due to the fact that there is not many left. You can still find it at a couple Exclusive Companies & Atomic Records.
