The Comateens: One small band's rise to mediumness. The
rock scene in NYC during the 80's was creative, diverse, and chaotic. Artists like
Blondie, the Speedies, Klaus Nomi and
Suicide were wowing audiences at
Peppermint Lounge, Max's Kansas City, the Ritz, and Hurrah. The Comateens were part of this crowd, and early pioneers of the New Wave sound. Emerging from
humble beginnings, they soon found themselves part of the rock and roll machine. This site documents not only the
blow-by-blow of their career, but also captures the personalities, vibe and aesthetic of the era.
