"The Suburbs" Arcade Fire
I really don't like any Arcade Fire songs (I know, indie music blasphemy!), however, I am so glad I found this gem off their brand new album, "The Suburbs." This song has jangly piano, groovy bass, mourning strings, and eerie lyrics. This song moved me at first listen!
When to play it: While writing in your diary on a rainy gray afternoon; while smoking pot and drinking red wine with your friends in a dimly-lit living room.
i heard the track when it was "released as a single" in May. was disappointed at first. but this cannonball splash into their latest album has really grown on me.
ReplyDeleteit comes in again briefly at the very end of the album and is the most hauntingly beautiful 88 seconds of the year... but ends too soon!
Folks I'm jumping on the bandwagon. I love this album. I can listen to it from start to finish repeatedly. A personal favorite is Rococo.
