They were one of my favourites for a long time. Their early albums are fantastic. Sadly I find it hard to overlook the sexual allegations of Win Butler and find myself not enjoying their output the same anymore. The wind has been knocked out of their sails, musically and spiritually, I believe.

Amazing 🤩  !!!

Finding myself really liking this new album more than I thought I would. Win's vocals have somehow been stepped back a tad.

Also enjoying what Bill is doing with this Canadian playlist: Neil Young, Be Good Tanyas, Daniel Lanois, Arcade Fire :)

Really digging this new album. It's thematic, layered, and has a depth that was missing on their last album (or two). I only wish it was longer (clocking in at only like 43 minutes). 

And FYI - it IS the Year of the (Wood) Snake, per the Chinese Zodiac.

This is new and different for Arcade Fire. To quote Groundhog Day, “different is good”.

This is not easy listening music.
But that's why its good. Complex & confusing. I need some time to fully digest it. 

That was a lot. Honestly looking forward to hearing it again and getting to know it.
