Few interesting information about Absolute Body Control except that it is a Belgian group originally composed of Dirk Ivens, Marc De Jonghe and Veerle De Schepper.
Group which will remain mainly in the musical history of this end of the 20th century for the high-caliber Single "Shake" which will be released in 1981.
For this reason alone, we had to devote this article to them.
To discover or rediscover.

Clips :
1981...an introduction that shows real potential. It remains to be seen what they will do with this potential...
1981 ... the sound as well as the style are trend, it is clear. It now remains to produce THE title that goes well...
1981... it is clear that the big take-off will not take place the first year, at least we imagine it. You just have to give time to time as they say...
1981 ... and yet it is with THIS title that the group will mark its mark in the musical history of this end of the 20th century...
1982...a title without words but it is also part of their universe. Difficult with this kind of title all the same to attract crowds...
1982... ditto for this one. Too bad the band doesn't make a little more effort to embellish their music with a little text...
1983... return of the lyrics but in a more or less obscure style which will not help to reach the common people on the public side...
1983 ... there is a slight improvement with this title, it is clear. A more structured title where music and speech coexist in a coherent way...
1983... the band hasn't changed much in terms of sound and it would be good if he looked around at how the others were evolving. Otherwise, the stall with the competition is likely to be violent in the years to come...
1983... there is a semblance of evolution with this new title but not enough in any case to hope to be able to fight with the best...
1984...we would have hoped that the group would make real efforts to stick a little more to the musical standards of the moment, but unfortunately this will not be the case...
2008...we thought we would never see them again and yet here they are back almost 24 years later. Who would have thought that possible...?
2010...and yet it is indeed the case. It remains to be seen what they intend to offer as a new musical project...
2010...basically the same as over 20 years ago but a little more modern. Not sure that's enough to put them back in the race...
2011... after as long as they take pleasure in what they do why ask more questions than that. The main thing is to participate as they say...
2021...we will lose sight of them for almost 10 years but here they are again. And still on the same musical bases as before...
2021... they will have changed very little in their 40-year career. Certainly the bands of the 80s are becoming very trendy again, but a semblance of musical evolution would have been welcome...
