Review: Of Monsters and Men at The Anthem on Nov. 3
While the setlist covered both new and old material, it was clear that many audience members were less familiar with the band’s newer songs. Still, when the opening notes of “Little Talks” and “Dirty Paws” began, the entire venue came alive. The voices of the crowd joined as one, echoing back lyrics that defined a generation of indie music lovers.
