I like people that are crazy, not insane like Ted Bundy or Trump, but fun and wild. Zig Mentality, formerly dubé ,  are definitely the latter. They come off like the chillest guys you would hang out with to grab a beer, teepee a bully’s house, and smash an abandoned car at a junkyard. Their ability to feel so casual and even calm, but then gut-bust chords that feverishly raged explained why their Mercury Lounge show was sold out. 

Zig Mentality live for the mosh and the head-bash. How they don’t have a broken rib and a concussion is beyond me. Even an NFL star would say, “Damn man, don’t get hit so much!” Yet, they completely prove rock, in what ever form, is a physical purge. The minute you grab that guitar, beat that drum, and roar your voice, you reveal human beings are animals. We are guttural creatures: trying to decipher if that gnawing feeling inside us that says something is wrong is actually right.

If there is one thing that made me feel SUPER confident in Zig Mentality’s future, particularly in the punk scene, is that they feel like us: the people. They went on that stage from the crowd, but it was as if they never left the audience. I am not saying that because they consistently went into the crowd but because they had absolutely NO PRETENSION. They were about the music, and how a song connects to how crazy you can feel in a world that is insane. Thus, in a way, their audience felt cleared by them, and, certainly, by the end, thought they were the coolest guys to perform under strobe lights. For More Information On Zig Mentality Click Here.
