The Meringues

are the personification of ragged, unbridled energy, both on stage and in their music. There is more than just random chaos though. There is a focused energy, enveloped around songs that possess catchy, memorable melodies and lyrical sentiments that are bitingly fierce, striking to the core of relationship dysfunction and the prevalence of self-doubt and darkness that exist within so many of us. A Meringues show is must-see, as the band tears through each song, seeming in constant danger of going off the rails.
