People still listen to Radio?

 

:D

i'm listening to radio right now :cool:

you better be listening to triple j or otherwise................

Of course!!! The only radio I listen to, unless I'm stuck in the backseat of a car with people who won't put it on :lol:

...otherwise what? I could take you.

 

EDIT: until the hip hop show comes on, which it just did... then the radio gets turned off.

you're a queenslander. enough said. :P

 

wish triple j would stop acting like they are the only people in the world to have the new arcade fire songs. i bet you theyre just ripping it off youtube or rapidshare like the rest of us.

OH! Don't start... :lol:

One of my flatmates is convinced I'm a Victorian because I spent a year down there... I'm kinda in no-man's land here :freak:

 

Haha, yeah... but they're like that with any new music. I don't actually know of any other radio stations that I can get that would play their new songs, tbh.

I think you may have misunderstood me. I was questioning what people thought of there being electronic sounds in the album, not me stating disaproval in the use of electronics.

 

I have the album cover as my avatar for several reasons. Firstly because I love the artwork. Secondly, because I love this band. And thirdly, because I have been needing a new avatar for a while now and it seemed suitable. I also have no doubt that I will enjoy this album in one form or the other.

 

I hope that clears up any confusion that you may of experience from my post.

 

As for track placing, I believe Month of May will probably be around the middle or the album, between two faster paced songs. The suburbs I think would be good at the start or towards the closing of the album. I do agree that Month of May would sound great live. And for the record, I do enjoy the suburbs a lot more than month of may it i have a feeling that it grow on me.

 

FTW

"At the start or towards the closing of the album" could basically be anywhere, except for the middle part of the album. :tongue:

Haha, whatever you think.

I'm really liking ready to start at the moment. Very catchy song.

Yes it is very catchy!!!Great song!

Eight album covers for Arcade Fire

 

Rumours are abound that the Arcade Fire's new album will have eight different album covers.

 

There hasn't been any official word from the band yet but If it's true, the set is destined to be a sought-after collector's item, so start saving your dollars if you're a die-hard fan.

 

The Canadian outfit release their third album The Suburbs on August 2nd.

^ yeah just saw that, WTF

 

Arcade Fire's forthcoming new album 'The Suburbs' could be set to be released with eight different covers.

 

According to reports on MBVMusic.com, the Canadian group's third studio effort will be released with multiple cover designs.

 

They go on to say that the ADA (Alternative Distribution Alliance) have listed such information about the band's upcoming August 2 release, but neither the group's official website or record label have confirmed the allegations.

 

Earlier this month (June 7), Arcade Fire previewed 'The Suburbs' live with a comeback gig in Granada Theatre, in Sherbrooke, Quebec.

So many bands have done that before that I don't really care, to be honest...

But have you ever bought them all?

I can't afford to do that!

:P I decided not to pre-order this album just incase there is a deluxe edition later in stores or something. That happened with Broken Social Scene AND Stars. The only two albums I have ever pre-ordered both end up having an extra EP in stores.

Whooaaa. Lucky!

awesome! :D

 

be sure to tell us all about it

enjoy it!!!

sounds like Jo had a time and a half!

I took that picture. :awesome: Jo took this one though:

 

 

:whistle:

 

And jesus fuck the concert was amazing. Perfect place, perfect band, perfect everything. Managed to get front row, pictures and autographs from Win, Regine and Richard, setlists, got a nice tan as well!

So awesome.

i want the effing album
