Last night Indian Rebound, Toro Y Moi, and Cloud Nothings played a sold out show at Mercury Lounge. It was good to finally catch Indian Rebound in action. These boys can really play live. All the songs found a new life live. They sounded fleshed out and a lot fuller than they do recorded, which is always a good sign. The band introduced us to some new songs such as “Josephine” & “Baby Blue”. Indian Rebound may be young, but they can bring it like the rest of them. If you haven’t already, check out some of their tunes. Your going to be hearing a lot more about them someday.
Toro Y Moi played before and they had the whole crowd dancing. Their songs are even more danceable live. He played a few new songs from his upcoming album, Underneath The Pine. I would totally pay to see Chaz play live again any day. His set was a lot of fun. Cloud Nothings followed him and kept the energy going. Oh boy do they have a lot of energy going. Perfect set of rowdy garage rock songs. Can’t wait to hear that debut. Philip Seymour Hoffman also opened and played an interesting set that ended with Noah undressing to his underwear.
Overall, not a bad way to spend a Wednesday night.

[...] Toro Y Moi titled “New Beat” to listen to. I remember him playing it when I saw him live a few weeks ago. It’s a funky disco number that’s impossible to resist. It’s pretty incredible. [...]
