“Nothing quite like this ever has existed, but God knows how I miss it,” Alex sings, and through the bombastic proportions of Two Door Cinema Club’s live return, he might as well be talking about the all-consuming aspect of performing live music. Trimble’s characteristic narrative is captured through an obscure pop sound, showcasing subtle twists from R&B in the concoction. This string of new inputs certainly surfaces on single “Lavender.” The track embodies that distinct cut Two Door Cinema Club take on in their tunes, a coolness counterpointed with a vulnerability, yet it is broader than the guitar heavy landscape we’ve come to know from the trio. Their third studio album, Gameshow, saw the boys take on a bolder, more confident outlook and illuminate their soundscape with a vaster variety of influences. The Northern Irish trio fronted by Alex Trimble made a bombastic return last year following a longer break from music.

They recently released a live video from the occasion to accompany their latest single “Lavender.” Earlier this year Two Door Cinema Club played two sold out shows in a row at London beacon, Alexander Palace, in support of their last offering Gameshow.
