Circa Survive @ The Paramount, 4/29/15

It seems that with every passing of a decade comes the ebbing and flowing of musical genres. The post-millennial trend saw the departure of grunge and the rising of post-hardcore and emo music scenes. The death of Napster and the birth of Myspace saw an industry evolution unlike any other. Among the plethora and breadth of post-hardcore bands, few were more recognizable than Circa Survive & Balance and Composure.

Over ten years since Circa Survive’s debut release, Juturna, and just shy of a decade on the founding of Balance and Composure, both bands graced the stage at The Paramount for a night filled with their early-2000 material along with recent cuts, including Circa Survive’s latest effort, Descensus. Photos of both Balance and Composure, Circa Survive and the evening’s opener, CHON, are below.
