Thosquanta (Industrial/Rock)
Alone in his tiny dorm room in the late 1990’s, Adam Powell
constructed and refined a band he called Thosquanta. For the next few
years, Powell went on to write, perform, mix and record two albums as
this “band”, a dark industrial sound with a slight synth-pop edge.
Years later while at a raucous Faint concert, Adam quite literally ran
into Jen Plum, a singer and songwriter he quickly recruited for the new
band, which was slowly becoming a strange amalgam of goth, industrial,
rock and country.
After the underground success of “Phoenix”, their first album
together as the new and improved Thosquanta, the band has joined forces
with [301STUDIOS] to release “lovelife.”, a dark and heavy re-imagining
of the project. Combining a wide variety of influences from goth and
metal to hip-hop and industrial, the band has received comparisons
ranging from Sister Machine Gun to The Sneaker Pimps. While the band
name may not be easy to pronounce, it’s their ability to write a good
pop song mixed with an extremely dark, electronic edge that has helped
them emerge as one of the many artists grooming the Twin Cities for the
electropunk takeover.
