    I love it when they reminisce on the KEXP show when they played the entire first album. It's hard to believe it's nearly 10 years, that performance is absolutely special and I come back to it regularly. So glad to hear the new material and see them still going strong.

    Such a shame the guitar is out of tune at the beginning, hence his expression and then retune quickly once the keys kick in at 1:30. absolutely love the new album!

    There is something very nostalgic about this to me. I've put these KEXP Alt-J sets on to jam out to while I clean my home or get through emails for years. I love them! Of course, with it being a few years since the last one, I've completely rinsed the other videos. To see this band blossom and continue thriving, but always returning to KEXP with the same gentleman interviewing them makes my heart so full. I love it!

    Jeeze. That performance of Chicago was beautiful. So interesting to hear them do it without the drums. However, I'd love to have seen Thom on here. I understand not having him on some of the smaller radio stations, but for a KEXP set? Come on!
    Still such a treat.

    To be quite honest… this is just really one of their worst performances of all time. You can clearly see that they keep losing track of the tempo and something just seems off about them. I have a feeling if the drummer would’ve been there to hold up “backbone” for lack of better words, it could’ve been a great performance.
    So, what I’m saying basically is that they seem sort of lost because their drummer is missing and they probably didn’t have much time to rehearse.
    You hear them asking each other which song to play even. That says it all. This wasn’t planned at all and they were put on the spot.
    I could be wrong, but it just sounds like a last minute thing.
