What began feeling like an off night for New York's Secret Machines-- with Beck performing a secret gig elsewhere in the very same building, no less-- wound up an electric showcase of what the trio does best. Atlanta's Center Stage proved an ideal venue for this Halloween stop on the Machines' in-the-round tour, a heavily-reverbed affair that included highlights "Alone, Jealous and Stoned", "Better Bring Your Friends", "The Road Leads Where It's Led", and intense finale, "First Wave Intact". Best of all, with the unique setup, everyone in the house had an excellent seat for a powerful and driven set.

Secret Machines wrap up their in-the-round jaunt this weekend, including two CMJ gigs, then hit up Argentina and Mexico later this month. Dates and more photos ahead.
