Archers of Loaf Perform 'Floating Friends' Live at Sled Island 2012

Venue: Republik Location: Calgary, AB, Canada Date: June 24, 2012

In June 2012, Archers of Loaf delivered a memorable performance at the Republik in Calgary during the Sled Island festival, showcasing their signature noise rock sound. By this point, the band had released their long-awaited album *Icky Mettle* in 1993 and had been on a brief hiatus since 1998. Their reunion for new music, announced around 2011, reignited interest in their early work. It's fascinating how their live performances, like this one, capture the raw energy and intricate feedback that defined their influence, even years later. They might’ve been viewed as cult icons, but this concert was a testament to their lasting impact on the indie rock scene, reigniting a spark for fans old and new.
