1)Early 80s new wave/punk band from St. Louis.

2)Also a mid-80’s band from Centerville, Ohio

3)Also a Salt Lake city alt-rock band in the early 90s.

4) If you're a saint with the heart of a sinner, The Obvious has got your salvation right here. Damned, dirty, Foxcore Punk, the female fronted Rawk band is steadily collecting converts with it's frothing live show, a sight which burns with the energy of tent-revival healing.
Their mash up of dark humor, social commentary, and the artful ripping off of the right 70's punk and 90's alternative influences is what's been missing from your life, so don't waste your energy on resisting!

Instead, get on board, witness and testify. The band is currently rollicking through our mission of informing the next generation with a combination of a sharp and uniquely aware perspective and feverent worship at the altar of refined three chord punk.

The Obvious is the original child of guitarist DAN ASTORRI and singer SUROJANIE SUGRIM, natives of Howell, NJ. The two grew up in suburban New Jersey, cutting class together in order to get to their real education of writing songs. Bassist Joy Bellamy and drummer Matt Guzda joined the next incarnation of the band in 2007, peacefully departing for epic adventures in 2010.

Since too much is never enough, the band's current and final outfit features none other than the so-tight-you-can-see-your-reflection-in-their-jeans rhythm section KEVIN CONROY on drums and MIKE SMITH on bass. the rhythm section and lead sections crossed paths one late night in Manhattan, after being arrested and processed in the same precinct. Lead guitarist Dan Astorri asked bassist Mike Smith for a lighter, and next thing you know, there was a foursome starting soinc fires. Shortly after the new and permanent line-up fell hopelessly in love with one another, they recorded the brand spankin' new EP, Bringing Wreck with none other than the fabulous Pete Steinkopf of The Bouncing Souls at Little Eden Studios in Asbury Park, NJ. Currently performing throughout the tri-state area, and The Obvious is very busy kicking asses and taking names. Read more on Last.fm.
