Arcade Fire. Formal wear or costumes only please.

Then you two are really not going like this part. lol. That movie was my formal introduction to the band.

 

[redhotswami]

The beginning seemed like a horror film, I was actually a little disturbed.

It was overall disappointing, I agree. I think my favorite part was when they showed a performance of Wake Up in Haiti, and the audience looked bored and/or annoyed.

I feel like I know less about the band now than I did before watching the film.

Anything that gets you to post can't be all bad, surely?

The six new tracks are now available on iTunes.

I bought them in lossless from PonoMusic World.

Either way, you don't actually have to buy a cassette to get the new tracks. Looks like you can stream them on Apple Music as well.

New songs being rehearsed for upcoming New Orleans Voodoo festival set. I'm not sure if it is being webcast.

Arcade Fire have finished recording their new album, massive tour in the works | Consequence of Sound

 

[corianderstem]

Yay!

 

[namkcuR]

I hope it's better than Reflektor.

Awesome news.

 

[bobsaget77]

It's about time.
Glad it's finally official -- now just waiting for The Killers to file suit.

 

[lazarus]

I hope it's better than Reflektor.

I hope you don't have to wear a tuxedo to go to the fucking show.

 

[cobl04]

I was just listening to Reflektor a few days ago. TOTALLY forgot about the Bowie feature in the title track.

Has a lot of fat (would have made a good regular album), but still their best album.

 

[lazarus]

Has a lot of fat

Please keep all Boner discussion to the Shuttlecock thread.

Arcade Fire Return With New Song “I Give You Power” Ft. Mavis Staples: Listen | Pitchfork

Give it to me kids.

 

[corianderstem]

!!!!!


Not sure what I think about it yet. Bonus points for Mavis Staples, though.

 

[Dalton]

It's a fine song. My guess is that it's a stand alone for the inauguration. I assume it will be the low point of their musical year as the event is of mine.

 

[david]

Not bad. It's got a nice beat and you can dance to it. I think the kids will like it. We might be hearing a lot from this Arcade Fire band in 2017.

I hate to say it, but that song did not do anything for me. Which is a bummer, coming on the heels of Reflektor, which remains a gigantic disappointment to me.

Meh, sometimes you just fall out of love with a band.

 

[coolian2]

Please keep all Boner discussion to the Shuttlecock thread.

God, that's an unpleasant mental image if you know what it means to "crack a fat"

 

[BoMac]

Really loving this song. Bring on the album and tour.

 

[No spoken words]

I assume it will be the low point of their musical year

I hope you are correct.

 

[Imperor]

Can't wait for this tour to end so every outlet will stop posting a "news" item for every single inconsequential cover they play.

This was indeed as satisfying as I thought it would be.

Arcade Fire Return With New Song “I Give You Power” Ft. Mavis Staples: Listen | Pitchfork

Good stuff. Can't go wrong with Mavis Staples.

 

[namkcuR]

It's not a very substantive track. Lightweight dance floor fare. I like Mavis Staples though, she's great.

I hope it's not indicative of what the new album will sound like, because if it is, we could be in for Reflektor Part II.

No matter what, we'll always have Funeral/Neon Bible/The Suburbs.

 

[No spoken words]

Funeral/Neon Bible/The Suburbs.

 

[iron yuppie]

Digging the new track a lot.

 

[cobl04]

I think it's shithouse and hope it doesn't appear on the album.

 

[bobsaget77]

I think it's shithouse and hope it doesn't appear on the album.

It is very unoriginal and totally boring. Lacks the unique personality that Arcade Fire brings to their music.
Also, I never thought I'd see the day when Arcade Fire rips off of "Gold Digger".
I'm really hoping this new album isn't going to be some pop-dance riot.

You and Bob are agreeing on quite a bit lately, Cobbler.

 

[cobl04]

he seems to be the only conservative in history with decent taste in music.
