Mensrea

Recently I saw Gwar at the 930 club in DC, the opening act was a band called Mensrea. I thought they were outstanding. The had some great metal guitar riffs. The singers had a great haunting screaming voice. I actually got a chance to talk with there drummer a bit while the other, not very good opening band was playing. He and Nate (the guitarist) are in another band called Locus factor, with Kris Norris of Darkest hour and Cory Smoot (Flattus Maximus) of Gwar. You should definatly check out both bands if you like HARD ROCK!

You should hear them at the following sites:
