I mentioned at the beginning of this thread that I think everything after Funeral has been pretty average at best, but I think it is good that they're an "indie" band (maybe not to an exact degree or whatever the argument was earlier) that is relatively unknown and they were able to capture some piece of tin that the music industry heralds as significant for whatever reason, and they beat out several very popular artists to do it. At least, that's why I thought it was cool: yeah I don't really care a whole heap about Arcade Fire anymore, and I could really give a damn about the grammys, but it's nice for them and brings attention to a genre that is (apparently) somewhat unknown.
