TOKYO POLICE CLUB IN CONCERT:
Upbeat Canadian indie quartet Tokyo Police Club has been getting wallflowers dancing with their post-punk-inspired sound and high-spirited live performances for the past decade. The group’s concerts are a nonstop barrage of catchy melodies, and sing-along-worthy choruses, and their outsize charm and infectious energy fill the room every time they take the stage. Earworms like “Hot Tonight” and “Your English Is Good” always elicit massive cheers from the crowd, and the band responds in kind with unbridled enthusiasm as they tear through their set. Whether they’re performing songs from their 2008 debut album Elephant Shell or 2014’s Forcefield, Tokyo Police Club always rock the stage with their impressive musicianship, lively stage presence, and extensive catalog of powerful indie rock jams.
BACKGROUND SNAPSHOT:
Tokyo Police Club was formed in Toronto in 2005 from the ashes of the band Suburbia. They began playing small shows in the area, and before long word-of-mouth buzz had earned them an opening slot at the Pop Montreal Festival. A stellar performance there led to a deal with Paper Bag Records, and in 2006 the band made their debut on the label with the EP A Lesson in Crime. They followed up in 2007 with the Smith EP, and in 2008 they released their full-length debut album Elephant Shell. The record was a Top 10 hit in Canada, and also charted in the US which led to an extensive North American tour. Their 2010 sophomore album Champ was also well received, earning them three Top 20 singles on the Canadian Alternative Chart and a high-profile performance on the Late Show with David Letterman. In 2014 the band released their third album Forcefield to another round of critical and commercial success, and they continue to impress with their adrenaline-filled sets on tour.

by JJmew on 2010-09-23Magic Stick - DetroitI saw TPC in the summertime perform with passion pit and there is no comparison. Hands down my favourite concert as of yet. The opener 2 person band Appletrees and Tangerines, soon to be Power, were engaging, strong, and encouraged face painting for all. The music was fun, uobeat and actually quite catchy. They started and didn't stop! The Arkells took the show to a whole new level. They played many songs from jackson square and just blew me away with sound and talent. Its great to see when the band looks like they're having fun and wants to be there. A very well put together band and I am quite happy I got to experience them. Now tokyo was fantastic. They commanded that audience and had everyone singing the lyrics to favourite songs like graves, citizens for tomorrow, and even a new song :) Dave Monks genuine personality shows when performing and he definitwly had me mezmorized the whole show :)
