The Forum started in total, heavy darkness. The chatter in the venue died down as low electronic notes began echoing off the walls. As the first heavy beat dropped, three giant figures materialized across the main screen: RÜFÜS DU SOL. Dressed head-to-toe in sharp black fits, the Australian trio instantly commanded the entire room, turning the historic Inglewood venue into an immersive dreamscape for night four of their sold-out five-night run.
Lead singer Tyrone Lindqvist stepped out wearing slick white shades and a black Amiri bomber jacket, kicking off the night with “Lately.” The crowd jumped out of their seats instantly. Strobe lights flashed overhead while dense synth soundscapes washed across the arena floor, locking every single person into the rhythm right from the start.
Swept Up In Light And Sound
The set list moved easily between quiet, personal moments and full-blown arena energy. “You Were Right” got the whole room shouting along as Lindqvist stepped away from his piano setup to sing right to the front rows. He swapped keys for a guitar on “Sundream,” right as thick blue fog rolled across the floor and bathed the Forum in a soft, fairytale-like glow.
Things turned moody fast when dark red lights drenched the stage for “Feels Like I’m Falling.” Hearing thousands of people yell the lyrics “the walls are closing in” felt literal as fans packed in closer together on the floor. The trio rode that momentum straight into “You Won’t Break Me Down,” shifting the show into a heavier rock direction driven by deep, physical bass that rattled through the building.
A Journey Through The Hits
The band reached back into their catalog, pulling out massive tracks from Bloom, their 2016 album that made them global stars. During “Let the Rain Come Down,” streams of bright confetti rained over the crowd, catching the stage lights on the way down. Shortly after, the hypnotic, looping synths of “Underwater” took over, sending the floor into a shared trance state.
By the time they launched into “I Just Want to Treat You Better,” the Forum transformed into a glowing sea of phone screens. Hearing thousands of fans sing every word back to the stage highlighted just how deeply people connect with these tracks on a personal level.
The Ultimate Musical Peak
The band closed out the main set with “Innerbloom,” which still stands as the absolute best track to finish a concert. The song’s slow, patient intro gave the crowd a quick breather to soak in the moment before escalating into its legendary second half. When the track finally hit its peak release, the entire arena erupted into pure joy.
After spending the evening guiding everyone through deep blues, intense reds, and dark visual spaces, RÜFÜS DU SOL wrapped night four of their residency with one final, massive burst of energy. It was a incredible night for LA fans who came to get lost in the sound.
