Absence was formed in the early 1990s in Saginaw, Michigan. Saginaw's cover band scene inspired Absence to create a unique sound of their own, mixing punk, hardcore, metal and ska into their own brand of musical aggression. Taking cue from the punk scene at the time, the three vocalists mixed and mashed their own styles to form one collective effort to spread a positive message through their lyrics. Absence's sound ranges from fast aggressive punk to melodic experimental, all inspired by each individual in the band. As the band progressed so did world events leading to an even more aggressive style. The band was always looking for ways to change its sound, which lead to an unpredictability that kept listeners on their toes. Absence played many shows in the state of Michigan. All major cities were played including Flint, Grand Rapids and Detroit along with many shows and parties in the Saginaw area. Trips to Minneapolis and Maryland inspired Absence to try a short east coast tour. The band recorded over 70 original songs during its life span capturing almost all of their work. Several songs would be forever lost while the band was trying to hone its sound. Soon after the east coast trip, the band split due to personal differences and family commitments.

the words: 
so i lean like that, i got a tape deck honey but i'm okay with that (x4)

i got a 'rolla uh, but the door is jacked 
big and fat, riding round in a compact 
the seat done broke, so I lean like that 
i got a tape deck honey, but I’m okay with that (x2)

man, get out ma way, it's biggie sears' turn to shine 
ridin' your behind payin' you no nevermind 
rollin' state to state, but the rhymes are nationwide 
movin' slow in the fast lane, but i'm always on time 
when i rock a mic, i never ride alone 
i'm riding shotgun with pretzels malone 
he's got bears with guns, and realistic lasers 
beats so sharp they cut you like a razor 
two lo-fi rhymers, we're the best of the bunch 
and if you're starving for beats, we'll deliver your lunch 
P's got the ham, and B's got the flava 
a bag a frito lays and a roll of lifesavers

rollin' from the jimmy's to your pad 
bringing you sandwiches and soda pops to make you glad 
stiff me on the tip you might make me sad (kick your ass) 
next time your sandwiches might taste bad. (x2)

i got a 'rolla uh, but the door is jacked 
big and fat, riding round in a compact 
the seat done broke, so I lean like that 
i got a tape deck honey, but I’m okay with that (x2)
