Fun Stuff > BAND
The Arcade Fire
kablaaamo:
I mildly prefer the stuff before Funeral. Granted, the vocals got a lot better over time but on the whole I am slightly more partial to the old.
....and....I had heard rumours that their new album is supposed to be ready by May-ish next year. I cannot remember where I read that but I'll do some internetz digging and report back.

The way I see it, if I'm going to make a thread about one single band and/or a recent record, I might as well check and see if the band already has a thread not only so I can read it and maybe learn something from what others had to say, but so the convo will have some semblance of a foundation already existing, and so as to not clutter the forum with yet another thread about X band.
That said, The Arcade Fire are great. :) I listened to "Funeral" and their EP again last night. Brilliant stuff. I think my fave track is "Wake Up".

It was kind of nice to see this one re-bumped, as I thought by now everyone had got sick of them and were looking for a replacement, because talking about them's not, y'know, cool anymore.
But then I remembered that not everyone feels like that what they're saying is being edited by an innate scenester of doom in their head.
I think that what I'm trying to say is that I like the way people here talk about what they like, not what they think they should.
I think I'm struggling a tad on the making sense front today.

That makes perfect sense to me.
I'm somewhat outside of every musical genre, I'm not really part of any 'scene' or really caring what is hip, cool, or what people are talking about basically.

^ Hold onto that!
Exposure to scenester ways of thinking is something that happens gradually, without your awareness and then BAM! You find yourself hunting out only the most obscure bands and accusing every band of selling out if they sell more than 100 copies of a limited edition coloured vinyl.
Cherish your innocence, for it is a rare and valuable thing...
