Press Reviews Tenacity: By CHRIS TALBOT Indie band Tenacity is one of the best bands to come along in years. Self-defined as aggressive alternative, this heavy rock band's album Criticize The Critic was the best album to come out last year. A big hit in South Africa, the British Columbia-based band has toured all across Canada and South Africa promoting their albums. Their first album was Broken Silence. The four-piece band (Gerry Gareau--vocals, Emma Ter--bass, Ray Gareau--guitar, Vivian Blanche--drums) is just as good live as they are recorded. I had the pleasure of seeing them play (minus Ter) the last time they came to Toronto at Club Shanghai. Their current album is 14 tracks of heavy rock music. Pay special attention to Erotisize and The Rich, the two best songs on the album. By these two songs alone, Tenacity shows they have the skills and musical talent to succeed as a band. Whether the song's about fucking or a political statement, it's easy to see why indie bands are starting to get special attention on cutting edge radio stations and on MuchMusic. Tenacity, if you're reading, I can't wait for the next album...or the next tour date. Surge, Toronto's online music magazine that crosses all borders.
