Bio:
I have very little info about this quartet from Sligo, previously known as
Reverb.
The SRS single is undated and though it has catalogue number "SRS 1" this
doesn't making dating it any easier as the SRS numbering system is all over the
place. But it's probably their debut, at a guess released in 1983, and it's
reported to sound like the Flamin' Groovies (Sire era, presumably).
The second A-side "You Will Fall" sounds like The Smiths while the B-side is
more in the vein of The Cure's "In Between Days". Produced by Eamon Carr, who
also issued it on his Hotwire label.
Absolute Zero played the 1984 Drumcliff Festival alongside Les Enfants, Toy
with Rhythm and another Sligo band Those Nervous Animals.
The core of the band
continued as Sid & The Stonecrushers (1986),
Sid & the Stonecrushers / The Boy The Boy (1986-90)
Joe Hunt & Martin Harte now in Indian (formed 1995).
We need your help to correct and/or complete this entry. If you can provide more information about this band, have scans, photos or any other memorabilia we can use, or spare copies of any releases, then please get in touch.
