Saying you're the best band in the world and you can do anything you want , so you're going to write a rock opera about the life of Kofi Annan on the xylophone , THATS pretention.
Actually, I tend to agree.

It reaches the level of pretentious if you start mentioning snooty reasons as to why you are the best band in the world. Merely stating that you are is not quite pretention. It's only delusion and idiocy.
