Pyrite has the illusion of being a basic rock band, but the sound has many layers: unusual arrangements, dual vocals, minimalism, maximalism, and everything in between.
Influenced by the lyrical and musical smarts of the Minutemen, the abrasiveness of the Jesus Lizard, and the sheer feedback of Sonic Youth, Pyrite is an assault on all senses. This is evident in their high-energy live show, where bits of no-wave, post-punk, noise-rock, and 60's psych are stirred together into the modern three-minute song.
So far, they have released a 5-song EP, IRON SOUL FIGHT, a full length entitled BACK PAIN on Belgian Style Records, and have upcoming untitled ep.

Why go to Pontiac Cafe (1531 N. Damen) at 8pm for a show at Reggie's at 10? Because Coldcock is going to meet you there, drink with you... maybe eat with you and ride the REGGIE'S BUS (pictured below) with you... for free! We'll drink on the bus, too!
Last time we played Reggie's, THIS (pictured below) happened...
What could possibly happen for the birthday of the ever cheerful JOHN WATOR of The Last Vegas?
Yes, what do you get a man who has everything? LAP DANCES!!! Maybe.
So...
There's the rest of the info. Better see you there, and if you don't think that bus ride is fun as fuck, ask Kevin of Thunderwing... I believe he said of the experience, "THIS IS FUCKING AWESOME!" So, don't be stupid. The bus will bring you back after the show.
Also, here's who we're playing with tonight, he's out of control. EL PASO HOT BUTTON (pictured below)
(AP) Chicago - Redneck terrorist, ArsoNick Scum, fresh out of jail and apparently unretired, will stage a terrorist attack at the popular dive bar, The Mutiny. Sources say that the entertainer / public nuisance will attack via vocal performance and dance routine. Scum, whose name is frequently spelled wrong, is currently living in exile from Central Illinois, where he was run out by opposition forces loyal to the 309's ruling conservative faction.
He is still waiting to hear what time he will be playing. Don't ask him, just pay attention to future posts and updates. Don't taunt ArsoNick Scum. He is the Son of Satan(†) as well as a Sex Scientist®.
