River City Extension & Washington Square Park made Absolute Punk's Absolute 100

NJ's River City Extension & Washington Square Park have both made AbsolutePunk.net's Absolute 100. Info on what the list is about can be found below. Be sure to read both of the write ups on the two NJ groups here. Right now Absolutepunk.net has only revealed 50 of their 100, so there is still a possibility more NJ bands may make the list. Expect the rest of the 100 to be announced over the next two weeks.

It’s that time of the year again, that distinguished month when us swashbucklers here at AP.net return from sailing the corners of the music scene in search of the best of the uncharted. The purpose? To present our findings to an audience proven to perk up at the first sign of good music, and then promptly devour it whole. Though the Absolute 100 is now in its 4th year, no one can say our enthusiasm has been chafed by time; if anything, we probably hit an all time high this year in terms of the correlation between “excitement” and “putting the Absolute 100 together.” The reason is really simple: we might always be finding bands that aren’t getting the recognition they deserve, but we know just the trick to put that to an end – turn AP.net on them. And so, amidst a flurry of anticipation and satisfaction, we present 2010’s Absolute 100. Sick ‘em, boys.
