Arcade Fire.

With a new album just about released, and I thought it was time for an Arcade Fire thread (that is if there wasnt one which I'd missed).
Many fans of this band on here?
Has anyone seen them live? They are supposed to be phenomenal.
Also has anyone heard the newest album? What do you think of it in comparism to their previous two?

My sister just recently got me listening to them and they are awesome. I haven't got the new album yet, but the first two (plus the EP) are awesome.

It didn't grab me like parts of Neon Bible or all of Funeral did. Maybe too much anticipation on my part.

I'll have to give it more listens, I guess. It typically takes me a while to get into any music.

Yeah that's exactly what I thought SoggyFrog. It wasn't as immediate as the other two, but once I started to really listen to it, I cant stop. Rococo has been a stand out so far.

Love their new album. Not suprised at how good itis.

Yeah same, I've been waiting for it for such a long time it seems, whihch makes it all the sweeter.


I just can get that out of my head, which is a ing awesome thing tbh.

That is my favourite as well. That and Month of may.

It's pretty good. I hope it grows on me as well.

Seeing them at Lollapalooza tomorrow

I got the album on Friday and have listened to it quite a few times now. I like it better than Neon Bible, but it still isnt as good as Funeral (though I didnt expect it to be). Ready to Start and Half Light II are my favorite songs so far.

loads of fun live

Just what i wanted to hear, I'm seeing them at Leeds festival this month.

After getting into it more and more Mountains beyond mountains, The modern man and ready to start are my favourites.
Has anyone caught any of their Madison Square Gardens videos?





Awesome.

I also like Regine's songs a lot more on this album than previous.

I've only watched their live concert on Youtube. Didn't interest me.
