The Arcade Fire - The Suburbs
 
Of course it's amazing. What'd you expect

FakeLaser 07-28-2010 07:54 PM

Also, they are going to be huge after this drops. So pissed I am missing them at MSG. Gonna be in Europe though so whatever.

Zelda 07-28-2010 08:58 PM

I am having an orgasm right now.

Buzzkill 07-29-2010 02:38 AM

WTF IT IS OUT? OMFGZLELE

Jon Kano 07-29-2010 08:17 AM

Looking forward to listening to this album. One of my fave bands.

ron the dial 07-29-2010 01:25 PM

Zelda 07-29-2010 05:18 PM

Sprawl II (Mountains Beyond Mountains).

Buzzkill 07-29-2010 09:46 PM

Wow. I didn't think Funeral could be topped. This is incredible.

Yes.

Triple A 07-30-2010 12:49 AM

I think Funeral is way better :'( but still good stuff.

D Mac 07-30-2010 01:18 AM

Never heard of them.

Juan 07-30-2010 01:21 AM

Good thing you posted in this thread then.

Buzzkill 07-30-2010 02:16 AM

Ya I dunno not trying to "conform" here but might agree with you triple a, I think I got really excited listening through the first time.

Just gave Funeral another listen and I feel like it has more "classics". This seems like a more "cohesive" album though. Might have to give it a few more listens before I can decide

Jon Kano 07-30-2010 05:09 AM

So I just tried to find a decent torrent and I read something about only 4 songs released? And the file seize is 16mb? wtf?

Anyone got a good torrent?

<3 this

FakeLaser 07-30-2010 04:37 PM

Funeral is better but this is pretty raw. I dunno. Haven't had enough time with this album yet to gauge it against the others. I would say it is better than Neon Bible though, which is also incredible.

Triple A 07-30-2010 04:41 PM

Yeah listened twice again today and "getting to know the songs" and liking it a lot more. Also like it better than Neon Bible.

Mooияakeя™ 07-31-2010 12:19 AM

But seriously, Neighbourhood 1, Wake Up and Rebellion are 3 amazing songs that I really like with Wake Up being one of my favourites ever and hey, if Bowie likes them, they gotta be good regardless.

Can't wait to hear it. I didn't like Neon Bible so much as Funeral.

Mooияakeя™ 07-31-2010 11:28 AM

Just found D/L location. Will test run this within the hour.

Mooияakeя™ 07-31-2010 02:09 PM

Sprawl II (Mountains Beyond Mountains) is indeed the bollocks. Awesome track.

Fignuts 07-31-2010 06:18 PM

Omfg this shit is amazing.

No access to torrent sites atm, so I gotta wait til it drops on Aug 3, and buy it on itunes.

No problem paying for something this good, but god damn the wait is going to kill me. Listened to Sprawl II on youtube, and it blew my mind.

Blitz 07-31-2010 06:39 PM

You are welcome, Fignuts.

Buzzkill 07-31-2010 11:27 PM

BTW - favorite tracks so far: The Suburbs, Ready to Start, Rococo, Half Light II, Suburban War, Sprawl II (Mountains Beyond Mountains)

Buzzkill 08-01-2010 02:26 AM

My exact thoughts upon listening to this while high on drugs

Triple A 08-05-2010 10:36 PM

Live feed of their show at MSG going on right now:

http://www.youtube.com/arcadefirevevo?feature=ticker

Chick in the band "dancing around all cute"

Buzzkill 08-05-2010 11:11 PM

Sounds pretty bad :(

Triple A 08-05-2010 11:15 PM

Sounds good to me. The feed keeps getting messed up though and the audio sounds really shitty for a minute until it "buffers" right or something, then comes in really clear.

Kapoutman 08-05-2010 11:16 PM

Love this album. Sprawl II and Empty Room are my favorites right now.

Triple A 08-05-2010 11:50 PM

Damn I wish I went to this.

"Got chills" during Wake Up just now. Pretty amazing.

Jon Kano 08-06-2010 09:17 AM

Hmmmmm.....

Well I finally listened to the whole album like 3 times...

I gotta say, it was not what I expected. Was hoping for some more anthem type numbers that were really uplifting - I can't even explain what I wanted/hoped because that's the thing about Arcade Fire, what they make you feel and think about is sometimes so awesome and different from other bands, its hard to explain, for me it is anyway.

Funeral is better, and to be honest, I think I liked Neon Bible more, loved lots of the tracks on there.

But I still enjoyed the album don't get me wrong...

REALLY LIKED:

The Suburbs
Half-Light 2
We Used To Wait
Sprawl II

KINDA LIKED:
Wasted Hours
Deep Blue

The rest I wasn't too bothered with.

RP 08-10-2010 12:29 PM

City With No Children is the only song i really really love.

it pretty much describes my every day mood

Blitz 08-11-2010 12:35 AM

Almost as good as everyone says it is.

Triple A 08-12-2010 01:19 AM

Well this is the #1 album in America now

Weird

FakeLaser 08-12-2010 12:30 PM

My sister went to the MSG show. Would have went but I was in Europa

Mooияakeя™ 08-21-2010 05:55 PM

Wow.

Awesome that live thing on Youtube. Still an amazing band. Sure to be one around for a while and hopefully, they seem like a band that will evolve and not just go stale. Awesome stuff. Didn't like Neon Bible so much, but my interest in AF has been renewed with this latest album.

Sprawl II I think would of been my favourite ever song if Tears For Fears' Shout wasn't so fucking amazing.

Extreme Angle 08-31-2010 05:21 AM

Watched them Saturday Night at Reading. Was amazing, especially since all the douches went to watch Pendulum instead.

Joey Slugs 08-31-2010 11:40 AM

Download Google Chrome (if you don't already have it) and watching this:
