On February 4, American rock band Palaye Royale brought their Death or Glory World Tour and their signature chaos and glam-rock energy to the Vogue Theatre in Vancouver, BC.

Kicking things off was Johnnie Guilbert, who set the tone with his brooding yet infectious energy, warming up the crowd with a mix of raw emotion and dark, alternative vibes.

The moment the lights dimmed and the LED “Death or Glory” sign illuminated the stage, the crowd erupted. Opening with the thunderous “Death or Glory,” Palaye Royale wasted no time, immediately showcasing the raw energy and theatricality they’re known for. Remington Leith, in his signature bold makeup, moved like a lightning bolt, climbing stage structures, jumping into the crowd and dancing with the fans and engaging all night long. Guitarist Sebastian Danzig leaned over the barricade, shredding on his guitar as fans reached out to him, while Emerson Barrett’s drumming kept the momentum relentless, seamlessly blending glam rock, punk, and cinematic influences into a performance that felt larger than life.

The setlist was a perfect mix of old and new, featuring “Little Bastards,” “Dying in a Hot Tub,” and “Just My Type,” alongside tracks from their latest album like “Addicted to the Wicked & Twisted.” One of the most emotional moments of the night came when Remington started “Fever Dream” on the piano.

Visually, the show was just as striking. Between neon lighting, inflatable balls and theatrical stage design, the Vogue Theatre felt like the perfect setting for Palaye Royale’s chaotic, immersive world. The band has always been known for their connection with their fans, and this night was no exception. From heartfelt thank-yous to reckless stage antics, they gave everything they had, proving why their live shows are unmatched.

By the time they closed with “Mr. Doctor Man,” the entire venue was buzzing. If there’s one thing certain about this band, it’s that they never hold back—and Vancouver got the full experience.

Palaye Royale will be on tour in North America until early March so get your tickets now! More info on the band’s website.
