Broken Social Scene performs Cause = Time live at Manchester Academy 2
In June 2010, Broken Social Scene was riding high on the waves of their critically acclaimed album 'Forgiveness Rock Record,' which had just been released a few months prior. This album marked a notable return for the Canadian collective, showcasing their eclectic sound and rich, layered melodies that fans had come to love. The performance of 'Cause = Time' at Manchester Academy 3 captures the band at a vibrant point in their career, reflecting the fusion of their various musical influences from indie rock to pop. Interestingly, this live recording illustrates not just the artistry of the group, but also their dynamic, communal energy — a hallmark of their performances. Known for their rotating lineup of musicians, the ability to convey emotion and connection in a live setting is one of their defining traits, making this performance a memorable slice of their artistic journey.
