Fresh off the release of the two-volume EP “Let’s Try the After,” Canadian supergroup Broken Social Scene returns to Los Angeles this week for three shows that, like their music, promise to celebrate life in all its complexities. One of the most beloved indie bands of the past two decades, the collective founded by Kevin Drew and Brendan Canning have released five albums of experimental yet melodic music that has turned their recent shows into cathartic, life-affirming experiences. Of last month’s concerts at New York’s Webster Hall, The New Yorker wrote: “Broken Social Scene is a stellar collision of a band — an outsized, kinetic collective, formed by a dozen or so musicians primarily from the late-nineties Toronto scene. As a group, they expertly transform ambient noise and acrobatic instrumentals into searing indie-rock experiments intimate enough to score anyone’s highs and lows.” Catch Broken Social Scene on Wednesday, Thursday or Friday at the Fonda Theatre.
