ASOB, the band that got too big. Upon the release of their first big album, "Three Cheers for Disappointment", they just got burnt out and things came to an abrupt close. At that point, they were selling shirts that simply said "ASOB Broke Up" since they had basically disappeared. "Three Cheers" is a very special album for me. I listen to it EVERY time I drive from Jersey to Maryland, it's just tradition. Said album can be downloaded for FREE here: http://www.quoteunquoterecords.com/qur023.htm. Below there will be a video for an entire live set from 2004 in Montclair, NJ.
