Zeds Dead Live at The Phoenix- The Review!

Zeds Dead’s return to Toronto on their Rudeboy Tour brought with it indescribable excitement and fan loyalty as Zeds made their first appearance of the summer in their home town at the Phoenix Concert Theatre. 




The unreal line-up, including Drop the Lime, The Killabits, and Zeds Dead, had the crowd pumped up and the club literally amped to a fever pitch as the room took on the temperature of a sweltering sauna. The performers knew exactly how to work the wild and out of control crowd, jamming hard to their beats as they DJ-ed- with The Killabit' Sam jumping into the audience on a lifeboat and going head first into a crowd of over 1200 people! 




As they scrambled onto the stage to dance with the DJs and crowd surf around the room, the audience was as much a part of the show as the performers! Dripping with sweat, raving shoulder-to-shoulder, and losing themselves in the bass, these dub-heads and electronica enthusiasts experienced what makes a show like the Rudeboy tour truly unique; it didn’t matter who you arrived with, who you were leaving with, what you were wearing, how drenched your clothes were, or how strange the muted ringing noise in your ears would feel the morning after, all that mattered was you and the music, the beats emitted from the talented DJs on stage that reverberated through your body as you danced, fist-pumped, jumped, and in my case even thrashed to the songs and the epic light-show. 




The intangible excitement that united all subcultures from every corner of the GTA into one unforgettable dance floor orgy only added to the success and awesome nature of the show. Toronto sure knows how to throw it down with the Killabits and Zeds Dead, and if you missed out this time, I would recommend you don’t let it happen again!




Thanks to everyone at Bassmentality and Embrace, that night will always be an unforgettable experience for the Social Talk team!
