I guess they want to keep those college drinking games going then -- drink every time they mention kids or suburbs. Listening to just a few songs is a quick way to get drunk.harmless wrote:I wondered about this too.

Re: Arcade Fire
James Murphy is a step outside for AF. really curious to see how this one sounds. Usually their production suits what they're playing perfectly. I don't know much about LCD soundsystem. This is intriguing.

Re: Arcade Fire
Can someone point me in the direction of something to listen to of these guys that might get me hooked?

"Tunnels."
And then, if you want to hear more (or slightly different), stick on Neon Bible. I prefer it, not everyone does, but it's great.

Ultimately, see them live. I was skeptical going in and they turned out being one of the greatest live bands I've ever seen.

Ditto. I was a casual fan who really liked their first two albums when I saw them in 2007 and I came out a diehard fan. That show was a religious experience.Soma. wrote:Ultimately, see them live. I was skeptical going in and they turned out being one of the greatest live bands I've ever seen.

Re: Arcade Fire
The very first song, Tunnels, off the very first album should be enough to make you intrigued to listen to more. Its still my favorite AF song.

Re: Arcade Fire
Will have a listen to all of these in due course - they're playing the BDO festival and coming on just before PJ. Don't want to be going in blind.

You're a Kiwi? I'm still on the fence about BDO.
