ABSOLUTELY PERFECT: Bio
Absolutely Perfect came together to create music unbound by genre conformity and freed by creativity. Incorporating rock guitar, hip-hop drums, fat bass lines, and melodic vocals, the influences are many yet the sound is distinct.
It's time for something new.

"Absolutely Perfect" may seem a presumptuous name, but this Chi-Town band doesn't fall too far short from the mark. As promised AP delivers rock guitars, hip hop drums, heavy bass lines, and melodic vocals.
Live To Be. is six tracks of diverse originality. AP mixes styles nicely, rock to hard rock with a ska melody on the bridge of 57, a metal beat and hard bass on American Eyes, a little R&B and hip hop fusion on Ca$h Flow; funk, hip hop, and rock mix for Tiger, and some alternative ballad style on Nova.
AP definitely reminds us that diversity is a very good thing.
57, American Eyes, and Nova would be my choice tracks off Live To Be.
but the whole thing gets a four out of five.
Absolutely Perfect is Tim on bass, Randy on vocals, Guy on guitar,
and J on drums.

Chicago-based Absolutely Perfect describes its music as “nothing you have ever heard before, yet strangely familiar.” While this sounds like typical self-promotion, these guys have actually nailed it. The band’s second release, the Live To Be . . . , has it serving up six bowls of thick, chunky bass lines with sides of punk rhythms – a stew of influences like 311, Red Hot Chili Peppers, and Rise Against. The originality, however, comes via vocals, which are too emo to label hard rock but just angsty enough to avoid being written off as another emo band.
