From the venue:
The Messthetics are the power trio to put an end to all others. Featuring Fugazi’s rhythm architects Brendan Canty and Joe Lally joining forces with avant-garde guitar savant Anthony Pirog, the band’s synergy verges on the telepathic. On their self-titled debut, the trio showcases an ability to sculpt textured yet weightless instrumental compositions that are not only abrasive but distinctly meditative. With Canty and Lally laying down the rock-solid foundation for Pirog to launch melodies into the cosmos, the Messthetics are a sonic confrontation that’s impossible to shake. — Jake Van Valkenburg
