Wolf Alice's epic + emotional Nos Alive set in photos
Our Love Is Still Cool for Wolf Alice
Tags: NOS Alive, Wolf Alice
Wolf Alice absolutely dominated Nos Alive 2016. See our photos from their set here.
Opening with a volatile instrumental, the band roared into album highlight and arguably the best song of last summer, 'Your Love's Whore' - still resplendent in its full-bodied grunge majesty. Billy Corgan wishes he could still write a song half as good as this.
"This is our first time in Lisbon," beamed singer Ellie Rowsell, visibly moved by the swelling and screaming crowd that gathered to lose themselves to Wolf Alice rather than Pixies. Naturally, the warmest response was saved for the track inspired by this very city, as Theo emotionally recalls his first holiday alone here when he was 19. Youthful exuberance inspired, the tent goes mental. Wolf Alice are the sound of a perfect summer, and long may it last.
