Kerretta is a band that decided to break the hard-rock mold and say, "Who needs a vocalist?"—and with good reason. The last thing this New Zealand trio needs is a human voice covering up what could easily serve as the soundtrack to an epic medieval battle or a harrowing viking journey. The band's sophomore album, [...]

Sadly, the devil horn hand gesture has of late fallen out of vogue. It may have run its course, but perhaps we just don't have the proper impetus with which to tuck our middle and and ring fingers underneath our thumbs.

Though New Zealand's Kerretta are in Austin tonight for SXSW, the show at Guero's Taco Bar is only the start of the band's tour.
