  • 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!
    "All I Ever Knew" available now in print and digital formats at Amazon, Barnes & Noble, and iBooks.

    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.

    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.
  • For the record, I really love their new sound. I think these tracks are pretty great and I'm eagerly anticipating this record.

    i only watched one song from the special and turned it off. for all that was going on, it was really boring.
    it's like they're trying to emulate the talking heads, but doing it poorly.
    did you see me? i saw you.

    EDIT: Nevermind. Got the email today that I won tickets to the show! So excited!

    Could I please ask a favor? I'm trying to get into Arcade Fire's special album release show on 10/29 in LA. Tix are only available through musicexperiment.com via different social media tasks, the most current of which is six words on twitter explaining what Reflektor means to you. Could anybody help me out by Retweeting my tweet, please? The task/entry period ends Monday 10/21 at 11am PT. Thanks so much to Scott (Dead Man Walking) and everybody else. Thanks!!!

    https://twitter.com/kc_douglas/status/3 ... 7926581248


    Really looking forward to the new album after seeing actual live clips from this past weekend (SNL's sound is always weird.)

    Not Brooklyn but going to the LA album release show next Tuesday.
