Broken Social Scene

On March 11, 2008, Broken Social Scene took the stage at The Wall in Taipei, delivering an electrifying live performance, including tracks from their self-titled album released just a year earlier. This live recording captures the band during a pivotal moment, where they were basking in the success of that 2005 release, which showcased their signature blend of indie rock and rich, layered instrumentation. Interestingly, they were on tour supporting their album 'Forgiveness Rock Record,' which was set to release later that year in May, highlighting their prolific creative output. The energy in the room resonated with the crowd, marked by their sprawling sound that’s evolved from an intimate collective to an influential presence in the indie music scene. You can feel the camaraderie within the band, underscored by their free-spirited approach to live performances, and this gig in Taipei was no exception.
