What is all the hooplah...

...about Arcade Fire?

I think they're dreary.

[Mr. dB]

what is it?

Some band from Montreal that are the new critics' darlings, and are getting the big push. They're all terribly serious and earnest, and make me want to vomit.

They had some good stuff on their last album. I downloaded the new one, got a few tracks in a couple weeks ago and can't bring myself to listen to them again. To be fair, I haven't heard the rest of the album, but they aren't quite my flavor.

 

[Island Son]

TV on the Radio has a few good songs. Wolf like me, I was a lover, staring at the sun

 

[Mr. dB]

Their stuff would sound better if the songs had melodies. Or chord changes.
