Can you guys tell me the most likely songs they'll play live besides their singles? Liked their debut, but this new album will stick with me longer I think (can't quite put my finger on it)
I love this band so much. Every Open Eye was my favorite album last year and The Bones of What You Believe would have been my favorite in 2013 if wasn't for Paramore.
They were great live. Lauren has stepped up her game from before (based off of videos). The video screens they have create an awesome light show. Only downside is that at times Lauren's vocals are hard to hear over the music. Not sure if it's the way the songs are being written or her power. But not a huge complaint at all.
can't get over how good of a pop song "Gun" is. i mean, it's literally perfect for what it is. might've surpassed "Empty Threat" as my favorite song of theirs now.
I can't believe I'm only just finding this thread. I think Afterglow is the best song they've recorded, but Night Sky is my favorite.
They didn't have it when I saw them. Kind of wish I bought the snapback, but I'm not sure how often I'd actually wear it
This was from their show last night and I don't know if it's better or worse not knowing the context.
I hope Down Side of Me gets played live sometime during this record era. I remember reading something about it being harder to perform so that's why it hasn't been done but it's the only song from the album that hasn't been played yet.
I was really surprised to hear "Afterglow" live because there's a ton of open space and Lauren doesn't seem to have a super strong sense of time. Or at least she didn't when I saw them.
Another flawless track IMO. This band is so far removed from what I usually listen to but I just can't get enough.

Gotta hear it when I get home. I saw them play their two soundtrack songs last summer which was awesome. They were out of the set list by the time the Every Open Eye tour came by so I'm glad I got to see them when I did.
Both records are fantastic. Martin and Iain are the master synthesists of our era, and Lauren has been on a steady incline upwards both live and on this new record. Saw them in Charlotte last fall and they CRUSHED it.
