Small room upstairs at Paradiso – my very favourite venue. The Joy Formidable were just…formidable. They could have filled a venue ten times that size with the sound they made. I hadn’t noticed before just how insane many of their song outros are, and they thrashed them even further during the gig. Lovely AV/projection display going on in the background, too – a neon outline of a wolf’s head at the heart of it. Some great photos from their Paris gig the previous night on Soul-kitchen.fr. Will definitely get tickets to see them again any time they’re nearby.
