August 19, 200817 yr I LOVE Neon Bible...I have yet to check out their first album though. You should be doing that. Like right now! Because in my humble opinion, Funeral is far and away better than Neon Bible. Don't get me wrong, Neon Bible is fantastic. But Funeral is just...untouchable.

August 23, 200817 yr nope.... well I think funeral is better than neon bible 'cause most of the songs I like the most of them are from funeral
August 23, 200817 yr Funeral is the best. :) thank you Sandy for that lovely footage :) Wake up int the middle of the crowd. I wonder if Coldplay took their idea to do a set in the crowd..

October 5, 200817 yr for all you aussie arcade fire fans out there. On Monday night at 10pm (AEST) ABC2 will be broadcasting a fair bit of the Arcade Fire show that took place earlier in the year. i have the audio of the full concert and it is easily the best concert i have heard all year so i cant wait to see it on tv. for those of you outside of australia i will record the show and put it on youtube as quickly as i can.
November 10, 200817 yr Yea, I agree with Wingwl. Neon Bible is really good, but Funeral tops it. =) By the way, is it true that Arcade Fire has a new demo leak? Does anyone know anything about it?
November 10, 200817 yr I know they are working on some new songs. I haven't heard anything on leaked demos yet.

November 10, 200817 yr i must agree. neon bible was good but nowhere near as all-round satisfying and heart-warming as funeral. they were too cynical on neon bible and admitted it was the product of too much critical acclaim for their first effort causing a backlash and them thumbing their noses. but i still love em. can't wait for lp3!
November 11, 200817 yr Where do you think I should start? I already listened to one or two of their songs, but which would you say are the best?
November 11, 200817 yr Where do you think I should start? I already listened to one or two of their songs, but which would you say are the best? I'm probably a minority here, but my favorite song by them is this version of "Headlights Look Like Diamonds": http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SjHT9BpKaO8 And to be honest, I don't know much about them, or about any of their albums... I do enjoy quite a few of their songs, though, and I strongly recommend giving them a try.
November 11, 200817 yr Haha yea! and after that, once you finish both albums, check them out live in concert (Or on youtube) as well as their B-sides. They've got pretty good B-sides and covers. (Eg. The Guns of Brixton) The first song that got me hooked to AF was 'Wake Up' live at glastonbury 2007 (I think). I saw it on youtube and was blown away.. After that I picked up a copy of Neon bible and have been hooked ever since =)
November 11, 200817 yr I have every single, CDS, promos, posters (Burlesque) of the band. It is defo my favorite band ...... AF is right now at the very early stage of recording their 3rd album (not considering the EP) Songs I recommand you: EP: Vampire/Forest Fire (brillant) Funeral: Neighborhood #1, Wake Up Neon Bible: No Cars go, Black Mirror B-sides: Born on a train, Guns of Brixton
November 11, 200817 yr I agree. Funeral is better than Neon Bible. I wish AF would play here!! They opened for U2. They're better than U2. IMO. It should be the other way around...U2 opening for AF. :sneaky: AF & U2 do a cover of Joy Division's "Love Will Tear Us Apart" at youtube. It would have been good if Bono had been interested and hadn't sung off key.
