Looks like Arcade Fire are going to release another single on 6/30 and 7/14. Signs of Life and Infinite Content are probably most likely - still don't see why Signs of Life has been chosen.
EDIT: Rumour has it that We Don't Deserve Love will be the fourth single.

The Escapist - it's nice to see some Cure love from Win and [whatever the other one's called] here. It is crazy how big they got in North America in the late 80s... Way bigger than oasis ever got, that's for sure...

Way bigger than oasis ever got, that's for sure... Jeremy Gara, the drummer  Yeah, I remember an interview with Win around the time of The Suburbs where they asked about what bands influenced his early youth (The Suburbs being a concept album about growing out of your youth there) and he said that being from a sprawling part of Houston, only a certain few foreign bands made an impact strong enough to reach him out there - singling out The Cure as one of those  |

Was listening to Yeezus and Watch the Throne earlier and I think Kanye would have produced Creature Comfort into a much better song.

Signs of Life out Friday. It sounds like Blondie making love to The Clash on quaaludes.

Yeah, you might be right - everyone seems to be digging it over at r/arcadefire. |

Yeah, you might be right - everyone seems to be digging it over at r/arcadefire. It's music you can fuck to. In general I stay away from live material pre studio versions. It can only lead to heartbreak and unrealistic expectations. For example songs like The Numbers, Present Tense and Desert Island Disk have been around for ages but I didn't ever really want to listen to them because one day Radiohead might unearth them. |

Are they really key songs on their albums? I'd say: FUNERAL: Wake Up, Rebellion, Neighbourhood #3 (Power Out) NEON BIBLE: No Cars Go, Keep the Car Running, Intervention THE SUBURBS: Sprawl II, We Used to Wait, The Suburbs REFLEKTOR: Reflektor, Afterlife, Here Comes the Night Time |

I'm just gonna put this here. https://www.reddit.com/r/leakthreads/comments/6k96wf/music_arcade_fire_signs_of_life/ Liking this one a lot. Has a Blondie feel. Never paid much attention to Kingsburys playing but his bass lines on these songs and the reflektor album have been brought to the front. |

Not sure who is on bass. They all trade instruments so often mid concert and album. You should checkout his solo album under the name Sam Patch. |

Was listening to Yeezus and Watch the Throne earlier and I think Kanye would have produced Creature Comfort into a much better song. Pass. Already great. Kanye needs to fix his own musical career before helping others. he's lost at sea. I disagree - I loved Yeezus (besides some really lazy lyricism) and the only problem with The Life of Pablo (besides some really lazy lyricism) was the tracklist. Got this playlist and it's brilliant. THE LIFE OF PABLO1. Ultralight Beam 2. Father Stretch My Hands 3. Famous 4. Feedback 5. Waves 6. I Love Kanye 7. No More Parties in L.A. 8. Fuck My Life 9. Real Friends 10. Wolves 11. 30 Hours 12. Fade 13. Saint Pablo He really needs to sit down and actually write his lyrics down again, like on MBDTF. His bars were fucking brilliant up to 2011. The "Is that a black card? Why yes, but I prefer the term African-American Express" joke is still one of my favourites - along with "I got a black friend, who looks like Micheal Jackson / And I got a white friend, who looks like Micheal Jackson". Anyway, I do quite like Signs of Life, just doesn't feel like a single. Arcade Fire do have a track record of never releasing the best songs before the album, though. I'm particularly looking forward to Good God Damn - sounds like an Isaac Brock song. |

I'm particularly looking forward to Good God Damn - sounds like an Isaac Brock song. The problem is he's now more for his antics and celebrity lifestyle than his music. I'm not even sure what version of Pablo I have. He's released it, pulled it, released it, pulled it. Added tracks. Removed tracks. Swapped running order. Then it was only on Tidal. I mean make a decision bro!!! |
