   About everything absent or distorted (a love story)
Everything Absent or Distorted (a love story) had lips made of orange peels and teeth cast in metal. Like most of us, her head was full of green grass and cactus. Her wooden feet were set in rocks like Golgotha. The year was 1972. The whole of America smelled of cigarette smoke. Slide show by Brian Carney photogbrian.com

EAOD IN THE NEWS.........'06/'07

Everything Absent or Distorted's album The Soft Civil War made it into the Denver Post's Top 10 Albums of 2006, the Boulder Daily Camera's Top 10 Albums of the 2006, and broke the CMJ Top 100 in August , 2006 at 99 before stepping aside to make room for some other very good records.


EAOD is also proud to have been selected as the number five underground band in Colorado by the Denver Post in the 2007 Denver Underground Music Poll.


Everything Absent or Distorted took the main stage at Red Rocks on September 14, 2007 to open the inaugural Monolith Festival. Other acts that shared the stage included Spoon, Art Brut, The Flaming Lips, and Clap Your Hands Say Yeah. Click here to see what Billboard had to say.


Like the cover art of pink-clad friends dancing in a graveyard, the music on "The Soft Civil War" is at once bittersweet and creepily comforting. The Decemberists and the Arcade Fire act as reference points on songs such as "The Exit Parade" and "Bureau of Yards and Docks." Melodic choruses bleed into triumphant full-on rock bridges. "Closer Than You Think Pt. 1" even splits the difference between Jeff Mangum and Paul Westerberg, its Guided by Voices-influenced chords rumbling with a delightful mid-fi fuzz..... Denver sorely needs more bands like this - confident and talented without settling for complete self-satisfaction....Guided by Voices meets the Arcade Fire. --John Wenzel, The Denver Post


Smart, symphonic chamber rock more at home in Montreal than Denver. --Ricardo Baca, The Denver Post


With a lineup that boasts of a doctoral student, two lawyers and an acupuncturist among other noteworthy professions and educational backgrounds, EAOD has overcome a variety of hurdles, together and apart, to stand near the top of Denver’s bourgeoning music landscape. --Denver Syntax


There's something irresistibly exuberant about Everything Absent or Distorted's debut EP (or "rock novella," as the band cheekily calls it), almost as if it's riddled with one of those totally intangible, lightning-in-a-bottle qualities that too few acts capture on disc, let alone on the concert stage. -- Matt Sebastian, The Boulder Daily Camera


The Soft Civil War, a love story by its own declaration, is bubbling with lovely pop melodies and delicate hum-along rock choruses. -- Tuyet Nguyen, Westword
