ive known about them since my big sister introduced me to them when their first album came out and my mom is just sick of it cos ill just plug my ipod into the car and play arcade fire whenever i can.... i never get sick of them. literally.
I had the opportunity to see these guys live twice but I have never seen them live. Once, in 2004 when I was too young to appreciate talent like this and once last year, when it was my brother's birthday and I had to go to that instead.
As the Beatles saved us from schmaltz in the 60's, Arcade Fire has saved us from the pretty boys and strident divas of today. Rock 'n' roll may be in the minority now
I've watched a lot of AF's concert videos, and i think this is the BEST performance they've ever done. Best Power Out transition, awesome violin/guitar bit at 1:00-2:10, Will at his craziest, and cool horns in the outro. But the fact that Rebellion is also my favorite song of all time might have something to do with that thought.
I think that this band is one of the most influencial of today..(try to listen the ultimate Coldplay works) ....can't wai to see them live...#love Arcade Fire #
I love this Performance of Rebellion (lies) I love the almost two minute intro, the horn part where you can actually hear the French horn and trumpet, that part was may favorite part of all, I am happy that they give Sarah a mic now. now she doesn't have to shout. This performance is bomb, the One at L'Olympia is a close second!
I know it's hard to hear, but I love the sound of the crazy horns at the begginning when it's the transition from noise to Rebellion. The trumpet/ saxophone (any jazz instruments) are some of my favorite sounds. Right up there with the Arcade Fire!
something happens to Regine when she plays keyboards : she becomes ultra sexy. MONTREZ-NOUS PLUS REGINE !
