Press Reviews There's not a lot to do on any of the Hawaiian Islands if you're a young punk, and Maui is much slower paced than Oahu so the options dwindle even further. Absence of Void will be visiting Oahu for a show that just might make folks think differently. They are fast -- very fast -- when they play their brand of old school-influenced punk rock. You get tired just listening to their demo CD, but then the energy pours out and picks you up again. One can only imagine how infectious their live show will be -- it's a rare look at an outer-island group of misfits. -- Rex Davidson (DigitalCity.com)
