"Quintus is one of my favorite new bands. The boys play with a respect for each other I've not seen in such a young band before...like they've been playin' together for years." -Levon Helm (The Band)
SMOP band Quintus = a Rubix cube of Brooklyn immigrants + suburban lostboys + yardsale action figures.
In 2006, Record Industrialists abducted, instructed, and disorderly-conducted the peachfuzzed freshmen. And after all that, the Record Medusa abruptly dropped the experiment, citing musical "irregularities". Instead, they issued a 3-year [Out-of-Office-Reply] and eventually decided to terminate the Quintus.
Meantime, while the Industriocrats were busy fending off music pirates, the boys got back up on their own eight feet and declared Indie-pendence in 2008. Now, Quintus walks the underground of self-endorsed 'musicians' and Chess, the affront man of the band and alleged 'Songwriter That Sings' is rumored to be a carrier of contagious melodies. "He's a Song-u-nist!" snarfs Downtown Records affiliate Joe Douche. Others suspect he's the illegitimate spawn of Chess Records founder, Phil "Cadillac" Chess. However, in a recent show of solidarity, Quintus has been anointed by Moonshine, as the unofficial house band at New York's Bowery Poetry Club.
Currently, Quintus is declassifying their audio files in the form of a full-length recording. The band's EP "The Shape We're In" (produced-by and featuring musical pioneer Levon Helm) can be downloaded via facebook.
