The show was non stop goodness, totally made up for Joe being a cringe master at the beginning with his moralizing to the crowd. Thanks Joe, we might have all walked outta there racists if you hadn't reminded us not to be. See you next time.

The legendary rhythm section of Fugazi (Joe Lally and Brendan Canty) plus incredibly talented jazz guitarist Anthony Pirog = mind blown 💥. The Messthetics were awesome and all are very friendly and approachable.

About The Messthetics
Joe Lally was onstage, playing at full throttle, when he realized that his band had found a true kindred spirit. It was the fall of 2021 and the Messthetics — the instrumental trio of Lally on bass, his former Fugazi bandmate Brendan Canty on drums and guitarist Anthony Pirog — were at Brooklyn venue the Bell House, digging into their uptempo riff workout “Serpent Tongue.” Joining them for the piece was a special guest, acclaimed jazz saxophonist James Brandon Lewis, making only his second cameo with the group after a drop-in at another New York show back in 2019. That first meeting had been a success, but this time, Lewis’ presence sparked something new.
The sense that there was more to explore within what began as an ad hoc union among the four musicians — lingered after the performance ended. Now, Lewis, Pirog, Lally and Canty are ready to unveil their first full-length album as a quartet.
