    Just got out to Amoeba in Hollywood early only to discover you can pre-order the album, with the single, directly from their website. Oof.

    Great new song!! I wonder if the single up for pre-sale with the new album is the same as the one sold in records stores?? The picture is black and white online but the one sold in stores appears to be holographic...

    New single is so good.

    :thumbup: doesn't really sound like them though

    http://www.nme.com/news/arcade-fire/72529

    i'm still digging it. Forgot James Murphy produced it, maybe that's why i think it doesn't sound too much like them. Still really haven't watched the video the whole way through though.

    I'm liking it. Seems a little unnecessary for the song to be 7.5 mins long, but still good.

    Reminds me of Duran Duran crossed with David Bowie crossed with the Revenge of the Nerds band featuring Gilbert on the PC, Lamar on the mic, and Booger on guitar. :lol:

    I have a feeling that they really wanted to make a double album and there will multiple songs that are too long. I hope I am wrong.

  • That special was one of the weirdest things I've seen lately. Crazy cameos included Bono, Michael Cera, Rainn Wilson, and others I'm forgetting.
  • I don't know much about Arcade Fire to know if this 70's Disco/dance crap is part of their previous sound, but I don't understand how a band with that many members would okay that music. To each their own I guess, but it sounded like bad 70's dance music.

    That special was just ridiculous. That's art for you.

    I still can't believe how big this band has gotten

    Me too. Given how god awful the music is though I'm not surprised though. I get that it's art and I respect that, but it's just terrible. The horror!

    I can't believe they are this big now because I usually don't like bands that later become popular. Their three released albums are modern masterpieces.

  • I don't know much about Arcade Fire to know if this 70's Disco/dance crap is part of their previous sound, but I don't understand how a band with that many members would okay that music. To each their own I guess, but it sounded like bad 70's dance music.

    Its not. Its a new sound for them. Probably due to their work in Haiti and immersion in that culture as well as having James Murphy produce the record.
