Press pLAy : Arcade Fire


I'm at a crossroads with how to describe Arcade Fire's new album The Suburbs. The most accurate words that come to mind are "small town".

Picture this: sepia tones, greens and browns, a bunch of neighbourhood kids sitting on the pavement, bicycles scattered all around, an old radio playing, expressions of boredom and laziness on faces, an old vw bus passing by... in other words Arcade Fire's music brings up a warped vision of a 60s suburb living out a long hot summer. Bascially everything an Alternative Indie cd should make us envision.

The Suburbs is a really mellow album, with the best tracks being:
* Ready to Start
* Suburban War
* The Suburbs

You gonna love the mellow old school vibe of Arcade Fire.


Press pLAy!
