The Rapture @ FYF Fest 2010 - Los Angeles, CA - September 4, 2010

When the sun set towards the end of the seventh annual FYF Fest, it was a huge weight lifted off everyone's shoulders after hours of suffering through severe heat and lack of water supply.

Cold Cave, Mountain Goats, School of Seven Bells, !!! (Chk Chk Chk), Delorean, Panda Bear, and The Rapture round out part three of our FYF Fest coverage.

Cold Cave:


I heard a great number of raves about Cold Cave's set, which was filled with fun electro beats and dancing. Some online reports from fans have even gone to say they were the best of the night.







Mountain Goats:


Mountain Goats' appearance at the festival was a smile-filled, solid set as usual. How could anyone not like these guys?







School of Seven Bells:








!!! (Chk Chk Chk):


One of the funnest sets of the entire day was !!! for sure. They blasted onto the stage with endless amounts of energy, and even hopped into the crowd for a song.

















Delorean:






Panda Bear:


Panda Bear, one of the two festival closers, emerged on stage with no backing band, stoically playing in total darkness with psychedelic projections flashing behind him. I, along with others I've spoken to, think it was a definite missed opportunity; I wanted to love it, but I left feeling lukewarm and slightly confused.



The Rapture:
