broken social scene

Elbow: It was fitting that Manchester's reigning kings of melancholy played to a tired but pleasant crowd under a grey, drizzling sky.

In the steady deluge of year-end best-of lists, Broken Social Scene’s “Forgiveness Rock Record” so far hasn’t really gotten its due — it’s a diverse, fantastically entertaining hour of rock that’s at least as compelling as this year’s offering from that other expansive Canadian indie band.

WOXY has announced their ACL afterparty taking place Friday, October 2 at the Seaholm Power Plant on Cesar Chavez.

The recently transplanted internet radio station will present Broken Social Scene to the 300-capacity venue at 10 pm, free.

More details on tickets and Saturday night's lineup coming later in the week.
