In Photos: Cut Copy + Le Galaxie @ The Button Factory, Dublin (25.10.11)

Aussie electropop merchants Cut Copy pretty much have the euphoric dance anthem thing down to a fine art at this stage, and the band's recent Button Factory show did a fine job of joining the dots between their two most recent albums: 2008's breakout In Ghost Colours and this year's more dayglo-sounding Zonoscope. A decade into their career, the Melbourne quartet now have an embarrassment of live anthems at their disposal - it's almost a case of what songs they can afford to leave out of their set. Relentless touring has also given Dan Whitford and co. plenty of practice at mastering the art of onstage posturing, and their Dublin fans were duly treated to a full repertoire of hands-in-the-air shape-throwing, along with some impressive synchronised drum solos.

Local glow stick-endorsers Le Galaxie – themselves no strangers to a TUNE or two – did an admirable job of warming the crowd up; don't be surprised if the Dubliners succeed in reaching a Cut Copy-level of popularity in the not-too-distant future.
