Parcels
Irving Plaza
February 22
Sometimes a new band enters your life and they penetrate your ears so easily, so quickly, so dang smoothilieie, that you juss know that they will now and forever remain in your heart AND soul (this is what happened when I heard Air and their Moon Safari for the first time). This is apparently what happened when the two robots from Daft Punk heard the band Parcels, and this is what happened when someone introduced me to them and their incredible Incredible INCREDIBLE song ‘Lightenup’
Their sound is so fresh, and yet it’s a sound so familiar and dated (in the best possible way ever), but whatever their sound is, the Parcels are so mod AND so rocker, and they rock me to the core. They have only one full album to their name, and played a majority of it and their previous singles in a super-inter-stellar evening that had me questioning whether they were one of the best bands I have ever heard live, or if they were the world’s finest lip-syncers. I think these guys are the real thing. Perhaps even better than the real thing
Setlist – Comedown / Lightenup / Hideout / Gamesofluck / Withorwithout / Exotica / Bemyself / Every Night (Paul McCartney cover) / Older / Yourfault / Everyroad / Tieduprightnow / Closetowhy / Overnight / IknowhowIfeel
