Pretext @ Noise Bar  #

Drove into the big city last night to see new band Pretext at Noise Bar on Albert Street in Brunswick.

Their drummer is Bruce, the original Walken drummer and good friend.

It was Pretext's first gig so I was expecting a lot of nervousness but they were as professional and calm as any band I've seen in a small venue.

I was very pleasently surprised by their style. Metal influenced, fast riffs, quiet bits. Unlike most new bands, they're not ruined by a terrible singer. Their singer was well suited. I'm looking forward to hearing them after a few gigs.

They have a mySpace website but I refuse to link to it. Go there and search for Pretext.

mySpace is internet herpies.
