The Attitude

THE ATTITUDE was conceived in May of 2005 by Jim Louvau and Anthony Kirksey. Both musicians are veterans of the valley's local music scene. Louvau was the lead vocalist of "Victims In Ecstacy" and Kirksey fronted the electronic act "Formula". They began writing songs for the THE ATTITUDE with one idea in mind. They wanted to have absolutely no musical limitations both comming from different backgrounds. Later bassist Nick Ruggiero, guitarist Jared Bakin (Victims In Ecstacy, WASTE) and newly added drummer Kansas Farver completed the project. The end result is chaotic at times but also takes the listener to opposite ends of the musical spectrum. This band may be influenced by bands like NIN, Radiohead, 16 volt, Deftones and The Cranes but they have built a sound will speak for itself. Even thought the band has only been playing out for a year they have already shared the stage with bands like Mindless Self Indulgence, Buckcherry, Crossfade, Dog Fashion Disco, Authority Zero, 18 visions, and Flyleaf.
