Arcade Fire, a.k.a. The Reflektors.

Well this makes me feel better about U2's awkward TV appearances

 

[Jive Turkey]

I can't see Regine without thinking about that time Impy called her a wolverine. Thanks for that, Impy

 

[Jive Turkey]

wat

 

[elevated_u2_fan]

wat

I think I know what this for, and I agree

 

[Jive Turkey]

HAHAHAHA elfa are you still watching? Did you hear the jingle for that personal injury lawyer?

 

[namkcuR]

I think it's over. That was odd.

 

[LemonMelon]

So I take it this album will only get a low BNM?

 

[elevated_u2_fan]

Probably, local Buffalo TV is the worst

 

[u2popmofo]

That was pretty awesome. Pretty hyped for the album now.

Loved the "space station" U2 mocking.

 

[bollox]

That was, interesting.

All told, we got Reflektor + 5 other new songs, so that's like half the album. Anyone know what the songs were?

Obvs Here Comes the Night Time was the first song played on the special. And the last one (which I really dug) I'm guessing was Normal Person. Afterlife I think was another, maybe also You Already Know.

Kinda excited about this now. I can't say it will be any good, but at least they are attempting something different.

Also, loved the jabs at Mumford & Sons.

Most importantly: Sarah's back! And rocking a Miley Cyrus haircut

 

[nielsgov]

I just found a link. Sounds good so far. I like the direction they're going in.

 

[mikal]

Rips of the songs. Normal People sounds incredible!

I know. When they announced she was pregnant I think I said something about wolf cubs because of that post.

 

[BoMac]

I wasn't able to watch this last night because I'm on vaca--uh, never mind about that.

Really excited to do so upon my return, though.

 

[Imperor]

Uh, that totally ruled. "Normal Person" is the hot summer jam of 2013, gaddam. Also really dug what I think was "We Exist."

Yes! I'm going to listen to these one last time and then wait for the release, but these songs sound great. If the rest of the album is on par with these.....

Except it's fall.

 

[purpleoscar]

Improved sound quality really helped me to like We Exist much more. Here comes the night time feels less repetitive. Normal Person sounds almost like Huey Lewis and The Guess Who in a good way.

 

[Imperor]

Except it's fall.

Looking forward to watching it later. Football first. Arcade Fire later.

[u2popmofo]

I liked all the songs quite a bit, really looking forward to the album. Should be an enjoyable listen.

 

[gvox]

Holy fuck, that was brilliant.

 

[iron yuppie]

Win stole that eye makeup from Michael Stipe.

 

[No spoken words]

Tempted as I am, I think I'm going to wait for the album.

 

[u2popmofo]

Watch the first minute and you'll see Bahno!!1!!1

 

[gvox]

Tempted as I am, I think I'm going to wait for the album.

Well if you do make sure you watch it at that point then, it's a must see. I thought the way they put this together is absolutely brilliant. Really intelligent campaign they've got happening here.

Who directed it?
