The Messthetics (feat. members of Fugazi) (2019)

Washington, D.C.

Let’s get this out of the way: Yes, The Messthetics is comprised of the rhythm section that made Fugazi such a groovy, bludgeoning force to be reckoned with, but no, they don’t sound like Fugazi. Instead, drummer Brendan Canty and bassist Joe Lally serve as an anchor for experimental legend Anthony Pirog’s virtuosic, avant-jazz guitar explorations.
