Dr. Timothy Leary identified a genetic type whose future circuits have begun to be activated and coined them FUTANTS. Futants are naturally selected to facilitate survival by being better adapted to explore the future and take risks through their genetic characteristics. Unless we provide a proper environment of freedom in which this positive genetic type can be recognized, operate in, and the dross be seperated from the valuable information, we will be depriving the race of a vital resource. Every time a scientist, philosopher, artist, or athlete pushes our thresholds to new ground the entire race evolves.
Combining the words future and mutants, Kansas City band Futants deliver an original mish-mash of progressive, grunge, rock, and metal stylings. Inspired by works of humanity and the ever marching beat of idiocracy, this three piece attempts to create a feeling of hope cast against impending doom.
Guitarist/Lead Vocalist Evan Deubner has spent most of his adult life recording and producing solo albums, two of which have garnered positive reviews with ezine Independent Clauses. He spent his teenage years as a singer for El Dorado Springs, Missouri local band Prop 13.
Drummer Ethan Otto has been playing drums for over 10 years. He crafted his straight ahead rock style in local Kansas City band Dora Dank. Ethan and Evan were part of a nine piece band which never get off the ground. After being fired from their current project, they decided to work by themselves, bringing new life to a number of Futant songs.
After playing first as a duo, they came across Bassist and last member Matt Pachmayr. Upon Graduating from college and listening to too much Primus, Matt picked up the bass in 2005. He spent two years fronting comedy band Zenith Farm as the masked Pumpkin King before joining up with Futants.
In less than a year the band wrote 11 songs, eight of which will appear on their debut album, Pass Me The Butter, recorded and mixed by Futants in the basement of the Deubner household.
Although Matt lives in St. Louis and the band makes its home in Kansas City, Futants continue making a name for themselves in the local scene and beyond.

Hello Faithful followers!! Sorry for the disappearing act. Maggie cracked her head open during a basement show, so we’ve been out(no pun intended) for awhile. She is almost better so when that happens we’ll be back in the recording studio. In the meantime, we did manage to convince our buddies at myspace.com/onryeproductions to let us do the video game SFX that are on their newest episode.
If you are interested in having a song or songs of yours featured in future episodes please send mp3s to onryecontact@gmail.com
Things I Love About Independence Day (1. It's legal to purchase and use potentially fatal explosives. (2. Being drunk before noon on enough beer to kill a Clydesdale. (3. Self-esteem increases each year you're NOT the moron who drowned at the lake. (4. You can wear your Captain America T-Shirt without looking geeky. (5. It's the perfect collision of crass commercialism and phony patriotism. (6. Because time-travel hasn't been invented, we'll never know how depressed our Founding Fathers would be at the way we f*ck*d up their dream of liberty and freedom. (7. That girl --- you know the one --- who always shows up in the daisy-dukes and a tube top. (8. We tell children in our neighborhood that are scared by fireworks, it's only a drive-by and they calm down. (9. You can serve guests anything, including walrus carcass if you barbeque it first. (10. They haven't figured out a way to make it a religious holiday yet.
