Bursting with energy, Code Pie delivered songs mostly culled from their recent album to an enthusiastic crowd at Casa Del Popolo. The intensity of the performance gave the material a punkier edge live, especially in the gruff vocals. Solid cello, great horn melodies, a fantastic rhythm section and tasteful atmospheric leads on the guitar bolstered the bands awesome pop powers. Possessing a powerful group dynamic reminiscent of Modest Mouse by way of the Arcade Fire, it should only be a matter of time before Code Pie become one of Canadas prime musical exports.
