Nothing you've ever heard, spoken word wise.
We drop the pretension and have fun with this stuff.
Catchy tunes and fun vocals make The Absinthe Drinkers
worth some space in your favorite music dispensing device.

"His Costume" during our live shows

The Absinthe Drinkers spawn catchy, original pop/funk/rock/whatever songs from works of literature ancient and modern. The Drinkers have funkified Baudelaire, punkified Shakespeare, and rockified a number of modern writers. The Drinkers also project original video during live shows, completing the facial orifice stimulating trifecta. They're still working on smellivision.
