In July 2007, during the vibrant summer of that Sydney performance at Metro Theatre, Built to Spill was riding high on the waves of their 2006 album "You in Reverse." This marked a significant point in their career, as it was their first album after a hiatus of several years, re-establishing their distinctive sound with those trademark layered guitars and introspective lyrics. Fans relished the fresh material; it felt like a long-lost friend returning with new stories to share. Interesting fact: the band’s take on Brian Eno’s "Third Uncle" showcases not only their eclectic influences but also their willingness to reimagine classic tunes in their own style—truly a hallmark of their artistic approach! By diving deep into live renditions, Built to Spill brought their studio work to life, creating an engaging atmosphere for both the band and fans, making every show feel uniquely memorable.
