After taking time to recharge, they came back as furious as ever, with Trimble flashing his falsetto all over the glammed-up, funk-powered, Bee Gees-inspired boogies of 2016’s Gameshow. Two Door Cinema Club are a Northern Irish indie rock band from Bangor and Donaghadee, County Down, formed in 2007. But all that motion was taking its toll: “We as a band were beginning to crumble,” they admitted to Apple Music. The trio then went into overdrive, bringing their tight, dynamic live shows across the world and quickly dropping second album Beacon in 2012. Their 2010 debut album, Tourist History, bursts at the seams with pensive confessions disguised as infectious club anthems, including indie hit “What You Know” and the aforementioned “Something Good Can Work”. This song and the next two are the only tracks from the JanuLamb show that were not released on the official box set 'Genesis Archives Vol. Recorded at the Shrine Auditorium in Los Angeles, USA. Taking cues from indie-pop darlings like Phoenix and Foals, the band soon found their sweet spot, spiking playful melodies with punchy post-punk rhythms and sing-along choruses. 'Watcher Of The Skies' was only occassionally performed as a second encore on the Lamb Tour. In 2007, the Northern Irish group rebranded as Two Door Cinema Club (a name inspired by the local Tudor Cinema) and decided to skip university to polish up their fidgety dance-punk demos. The trio had been honing that sound since they were teens, when singer/guitarist/programmer Alex Trimble, lead guitarist Sam Halliday and bassist Kevin Baird formed the band Life Without Rory in Bangor.
Since debuting with 2009’s joyous, jangly “Something Good Can Work”, Two Door Cinema Club have served as a high-energy antidote to, well, life with their bright electro-pop anthems. Two Door Cinema Club: The Northern Irish act, increasingly popular stateside (they drew pretty huge at both Coachellas last month), return for a spotlight at the Greek on Nov.
