Melbourne band Pagan aren't concerned with round holes and square pegs – they're too busy trying to kick the door down and rip down the foundations. The genre-defiant quartet dropped their debut album, Black Wash, earlier in the year to much fanfare – although they've had quite the run-up to its release, and it's far from their first rodeo. Vocalist Nikki Brumen and bassist Dan Bonnici share a lot of history together, and over some beers at Young Henry's in Enmore they divulge basically all of it for your listening pleasure.
Pagan play The Grace Darling in Melbourne on November 5 with In Trenches and Year Of The Rat.

Across over ten years of going to shows, I've met countless fascinating people that are joined together by the fact I love their music. This is a medium in which I look to find out the bigger picture, the extended story and the journey that brought them to where they are. No genre or topic is off limits. I'm David James Young - and all my friends are in bar bands.
