James Arden checks out the garage rockers latest album.
The Christian rock band from Brighton bring religion to the masses.
Recipe for modern R'n'B album: liberal helpings of guest rappers and an overdose of sexual euphemisms.
The blank canvas of the venue was transformed, not by the scant but effective decoration, but by the kind of music that nights out in York have been crying out for since the first person that left Toffs thinking "there must be something more to a night out that doesn't involve getting on a train to go somewhere else". The generous helpings of Justice, Digitalism and Simian Mobile Disco meant that the dancefloor was continuously packed, and that you were never more than a few minutes away from a euphoric breakdown or a soul-enhancing beat.
The best thing about the evening was the atmosphere, where a sense of having discovered something special permeated the crowd - similar to the best houseparties, but with a bar and a proper soundsystem. The only shame here was that the night couldn't go on any later than 2am, even as the music stopped at around 1:57 the screams for more meant another round of Digitalism was offered as an encore.
The idea behind the night is of a different musical style each time (Facebook suggests hip-hop for next term) - lets hope the organisers can turn the next genre into a night as good as this one.
YES!
Soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo good!
Can't wait for hip hop. Wayhey.
