M83 @ THE FONDA



The Saturday after Thanksgivng, I had the amazing pleasure of witnessing the incredible musical genius of M83. It was such an experience, with their intense and loud mixtures of guitar, keyboards, electronica, and vocals. Although Anthony Gonzales, coming from Antibes, France is the main man behind M83, he does have musicians joinging him on his albums and tour. His sound is so unique, but has the quailities of My Bloody Valentine, Joy Division, and even Depeche Mode. This tour, promoting his 5 album, "Saturdays = Youth", which took a slight departure from his previous recordings. The night that I was able to witness his/their performance they performed all of my favorites from his newest album, "You, Appearing", " Couleurs", and "Graveyard Girl", but did not disappoint and played my favorites from previous recordings, "Birds", "Teen Angst", and "Gone". I was comletely impressed and blown away. I could FEEL the music, and the intensity, and it such and ambient and even a physical experience, one I will never forget.
