…And You Will Know Us by the Trail of Dead

...And You Will Know Us By The Trail of Dead performed 'Will You Smile Again?' live at Lee's Palace in Toronto on November 20, 2012. This performance occurred shortly after the band released their album 'Lost Songs' in 2012, which marked a significant return to their aggressive sound reminiscent of their earlier work. The live recording captures the vibrant energy synonymous with their performances and includes notable elements from their post-rock influences. Fans often appreciate the raw intensity that the band brings, transforming the venue into a cathartic space. Interestingly, 'Lost Songs' was created almost as a reaction to the fast-paced, sometimes superficial nature of modern music, showcasing their dedication to meaningful artistry—even in a world where fleeting trends dominate discussions. This particular performance is a visceral reminder of their commitment to authenticity during a dynamic period in their career.
