Abecedarians were an American, Los Angeles-based post-punk trio, active in the mid to late 1980s. The lineup consisted of Chris Manecke (guitar, vocals, keyboards), Kevin Dolan (drums) and John Blake (bass). They specialized in sparse, guitar-driven post-punk, though their most well-known song, “Smiling Monarchs”, is alternative dance in the vein of New Order, and was in fact mixed by that band’s guitar player and vocalist, Bernard Sumner.
