Here’s the small army that is Broken Social Scene, hitting the Ed Sullivan Theatre last night for a take on the Forgiveness Rock Record single “Forced To Love.” Only Lisa Lobsinger represents from the female side of the Scene, though the ranks were fleshed out by ex-DFA1979 and present And The Mountains man Sebastien Grainger, whose finger-work must go acknowledged (and has rubbed off on Andrew Whiteman). Dave begins shaking all the hands as the surging song winds up, until he realizes there are too many hands to shake.


Forgiveness Rock Record is out 5/4 via Arts & Crafts. This is likely the lineup you’ll find on this tour.

  1. Is he reading the lyrics off of the paper on the ground?

  2. What this band needs is anther bass player.

  3. That song sounds like an outtake from the “Mannequin 2″ soundtrack. Really well-executed, but… “Forced” seems an apt word for it.

  4. haha he definitely is reading the lyrics. At sxsw he made a comment about how he could never remember the lyrics to this song.

  5. -kevin drew is disgusting (nasty hair, stupid hipster hat)
    -andrew whiteman is disgusting (gross sunglasses and “moves”)
    -boring song, like a watered down, bland “fire eye’d boy”
