feels long. I tend to only like Arcade Fire songs rather than albums though.

I'm also not sure why they couldn't make this into a single disc.
And, Harmless tells us we don't even have the whole thing.

What does length have to do with anything?

I get the same feeling. Like they're playing in a really dark and tiny room directly in front of me. It sounds like the night!
Awful Sound is lovely.

Feels long. Don't pretend you don't know what that means, blablabla.

This is pretty awesome. It reminds me of the first time I listened to Kid A, though on a less-mindblowing "what the FUCK IS THIS?" scale.
I really loved about half of it and the rest makes me think I'm going to like it with repeated listens.

Listen to the stream, bros, and all will be revealed. Considering you were the first person to put the stream here, I'm surprised you haven't spotted the difference.

Can someone rustle up the complete tracklist and song lengths? I find it hard to believe they'd put an album less than 80 minutes long on two discs.

Okay, gonna give this a listen. Lets see how it goes.
I'm not a big fan of the singer's voice. The previous 3 albums each have 2-3 songs I like quite a bit. The rest I could take or leave.
Funeral has Wake Up, Haiti, and Rebellion
Neon Bible had Keep the Car Running and Antichrist Television Blues
Suburbs has City with no Children and Month of May
Lets see how Reflektor does. I've heard the single twice, but never a close listen. I liked what i heard, though
