Who all is seeing them live? I just scooped up tickets last night for their Miami show. What should I expect? I unfortunately was too fucked up at their 2011 bonnaroo show to remember anything, so this is a sort of...redemption show for me. Can't wait tho!
I'm going to the Nola show, it'll be my third time seeing them. The first time I saw them was at Jazz Fest in 14 I think, and I was really underwhelmed. But I might just really not like Jazz Fest, because I went to their Voodoo show last year and was blown away. Easily in my top 5 sets.
So I think you can expect some awesomeness, personally I'm banking on the new songs translating really well live. Here's the Voodoo set for reference:
that would make sense if they didn't rate every arcade fire album BNM, they were probably bummed. things that have been well received here recently have been well received there. Tyler, lorde, lana, EX EYE!, gizz, arca, vince, prins thomas, etc. I haven't listened to it yet, but none of the singles clicked with me (all of which pitchfork has been sharing, and covering)
so you might be suggesting that someone here works for them?
alright, just saw Couch Slut, which one of you is it?
I've never seen someone who looks so painfully insecure and uncomfortable dancing so determined to make dance music. Win Butler's become such a goof. Like Bono with less charisma
It does seem like a bit, with the part about not speaking to the one guy and the little intro that the show did for them. Still, if you're gonna bring the irony, make sure the music backs it up.
Unless.. Maybe the album as released is part of the joke! Maybe an actual good Arcade Fire album is on the way!
wow a giant rock band in 2017 has a rider? thats wild.
Literally no one is pissed or thinks it's significant that they have a rider. If you think it's a genuine rider, you should have an issue with what's in it.
Well, the energy drink is one of the bits that actually kind of works for me. I don't know if they're actually selling it, but I don't think they're trying to leverage their status as a rock band into a successful energy drink brand in an earnest way. It's clearly a joke. I have zero problem with that.
The rider is almost certainly a joke. It's just not all that funny or well-crafted, in keeping with the album.

I honestly don't mind Peter Pan too much, but Chemistry and both of the Infinite Contents are trash. Creature Comfort is pretty bad too even with Geoff Barrow producing it. I still can't believe how big of a drop in quality Everything Now is compared to their first four albums. Seriously what fucking happened

disagree with the Creature Comfort part, but yeah i have no clue how they dropped off so hard. its pretty sad tbh.

There's just something about the way Win's vocals are mixed that really makes me dislike it. I don't know how to describe it but it makes me cringe. Chemistry makes me laugh and then weep over how shitty it is.
That being said, I like Electric Blue and think Signs of Life is cheesy but fun. The album isn't bad, but it's crazy to think how four of the songs on it could easily be considered their worst with little argument.

I find Creature Comfort's lyrics incredibly cringeworthy to a point that it's hard for me to look past and hear the pretty solid music of the song, but some people seem to really like it so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Honestly, I agree with you about the lyrics but I don't even think the music is solid. It's gonna have to be really fucking good live to win me over.
A #fakenews campaign does nothing for this subpar album. Please stop.
Edit: We have enough trolls. I prefer our "serious" bands remain serious and not take part in every dumb trend. They are preaching to the wrong base anyways. I doubt this piece of satire will convert many AF listening, Trump-supporters.

Even their big fans seem over this weird campaign at this point. Just seems like a massive waste of time. A top comment on Reddit summed it up best:
I think it's kind of funny. There will end up having been Easter Eggs and shit that everyone missed. MFers are over it because they want EVERYTHING NOW!
