From the first track of\u00a0their set at the Bovine, it was like a R&#8217;n&#8217;R kick in the chops, and never let up through their entire set &#8211; luckily I remembered my ear plugs or my ears would still be ringing (safety first, kids!). Full of energy and sounding like a heavier Bleach-era Nirvana (this is definitely a good thing in my\u00a0eyes).<\/p>\n<p>Not only did the trio unleash their catchy,\u00a0fuzz-laden sound on Toronto\u00a0last night, but singer\u00a0Jon Redditt provided some very funny chatter between songs. This was almost as entertaining as the music itself.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/cultureaddicts.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/WB-LP-jacket.jpg\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-thumbnail wp-image-8164\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/cultureaddicts.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/WB-LP-jacket.jpg?resize=150%2C150\" alt=\"WB-LP-jacket\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/cultureaddicts.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/WB-LP-jacket.jpg?resize=150%2C150&amp;ssl=1 150w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/cultureaddicts.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/WB-LP-jacket.jpg?w=300&amp;ssl=1 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>This\u00a0was a solid, energetic set.
