Try to make a list of classic electronic music performance on television and you’ll be hard press to think of, um…any? Underworld have always been one of the finest purveyors of live techno, so it seems reasonalbe that they would try to take their panoramic performance to the small screen. The result is a pretty intense version of “Always Loved A Film” on Fallon last night, with Rick Smith putting up some backing vocals to give the camera something to cut to besides Karl Hyde’s hyper-squirmy dance moves. So while it totally worked, we do have to wonder if at any point it was discussed having house band The Roots join in.
