:wacky:

 

Genuinely excited for this. Arcade Fire is the only band I'm even remotely passionate about relative to Coldplay.

NEW ARCADE FIRE SEPTEMBER 9TH! :dance:

I check Coldplaying for the first time in quite a while and I stumble upon this great news.

 

To be honest, I haven't listened to Arcade Fire for quite a while. They used to be basically my favorite band, but I grew a little bit tired of them. The new album might change that.

^Yeah actually I got a bit tired of them too, but I'm pretty sure that this new album will change that again :)

I still love Funeral (Who couldn't?) and really like Neon Bible, however the Suburbs completely killed it for me, I thought maybe 3 or 4 songs were alright.

 

So it'll be interesting hearing a new album.

I pretty much love everything they've released, and can't wait for this.

I have great memories with The Suburbs, so it might be my favourite Arcade Fire album. But Funeral is clearly the best and Neon Bible is pretty good too. :)

NEW ALBUM SEPTEMBER 9TH! :dance:

I don't want to burts anyone's bubble but here is the exact quote:

 

"Sources close to beloved Canadian indie rock gods Arcade Fire have told REVOLT TV that music from the follow up of the band’s Grammy Award–winning 2010 album, The Suburbs, will arrive on September 9."

 

the phrase "from the follow up" as opposed to just saying the follow up makes me think that it will be the first single that comes out on 9/9 and not the new album.

 

NME seems to agree...

 

"Revolt TV cites sources close to the band, saying a brand new track will be out this autumn. However, September 9 is not the release date of a new album, which will be the follow up to 2010's 'The Suburbs."

 

Still pretty cool news though.

^I see, thanks for pointing that out. I'm still excited :dance:

Are release dates normally announced 10 weeks prior? Is that not a little unusual, particularly if it is for a single?

A lot of albums are announced 2 or 3 months prior. Singles not really.

Oh ok den.

 

I don't keep up with stuff and normally find out after things are released cuz I'm cool like that. :cool:

Update on the September 9th thing...

 

Someone on reddit leaked this memo:

 

 

 

Aaaaaaaaaand then Arcade Fire tube posted this:

 

 

 

Coincidence? I don't think so...

Sorry Fran but I think you need to get out more.

 

Wanna play golf?

Yes, I'd love to do it, but only if you teach me how to play it :lol:

I hope the next release is better than the last. The last was OK but nothing special at all.

I sort of agree with this, the weakest of their albums by far for me, it was still good but compared to funeral and neon bible, just didn't do it for me except a couple songs (suburbs, ready to start). I think the new album needs more Win screaming.

I thought Suburbs was really good... it was just too long. And if this news is true, then where's the single? When is that coming?

I'd love it as an album of material similar to the closing track on Suburbs.
