Abandon Stage

About Me

Abandon Stage
.... are an absorbent london-based quintet playing music with progressive elements integral to its unique sound. With purposeless twin-guitar solos, use of transpositional modes and a tasteless abundance of effects, this band spits on the concept of subtlety as an ingredient of art
