Hoi! This month, Drowned In Sound sent me back to tha Toon to capture Editors and The Twilight Sad doing their thing at the O2 Academy.
This was my first time seeing both bands live, but after hearing GJB from local photography collective Blank Slate raving about The Twilight Sad, I was particularly keen to catch their set – which I nearly missed, due to delayed trains. And I was glad to find they weren’t just a treat for the ears. There’s something quite thrilling about James Graham’s onstage performance in particular that’s almost at odds with the impression from the tailoring of their craft. Like something huge and terrifying is trying to escape through a singular tiny human body.
Regardless, you’ll find shots of both bands at the link below. Hope you enjoy them!
