Sounds like a b-side to me. Though it's more fun than Hallelujah Money, that's for sure!

It's okay but sounds more like a gospel refrain rather than a full tune. I like the groove and the hip-hop style loops in it though, so sonically might give indications of the new album. Seems like it was released as a tune to coincide with tomorrow's dreaded event more than anything though - no press release or anything so perhaps just a taster?

I haven't even finished the song. Probably their worst, ever. What the fuck is that ? Awful. If that's a taster, well, thanks but I'm not hungry anymore...

Not sure who Mavis Staples is, but really like him or her. Thanks. I know you're joking, but... tuuuune still not interested in AF btw. Overrated as fuck Have you tried "Funeral" ?

But for me, Funeral is their magnum opus. Reflektor, I've listened to it again these last days and I don't know what to think about it yet (not that bad or bang average), but it is by far their worst album, imo. My favourite Arcade Fire song is "Tunnels".

I Give You Power sounds like a modern day version of John Lennon's "Power To The People". Anti-Nixon. Anti-Trump.

Lame, sounds like a discarded song from Reflektor era.

Lame, sounds like a discarded song from Reflektor era. The song has been around for awhile. Maybe 12-15 months. I wouldnt read too much into its sound to determine the next arcade Fire direction.

It's a decent throwaway protest tune for the inauguration. Some good bits in it, very catchy, and I always love Win's cynical speaking voice (Where do ya think it all comes from?) - but certainly no Neighbourhood #3. Definitely hope it's not on LP5 and I very much doubt it will be.

Posted on their Facebook page. Hmm.... Infinite Content. That will be their theme on this go around. How there is seemingly endless digital content in the world and how it is damaging art.

New pic...is it just me or does Reginne look sexy AF* in a suit? Anyway, getting quite a bluesy, New Orleans vibe from this, which would be so cool! *Arcade Fire

I'm feeling a Monday morning news dump on album 5. We are so so so close. Especially with a June tour.

They did the same thing for Reflektor. Did a handful of private gigs in Montreal and performed many new songs. No cameras. No videos. The fans took to reddit to describe stuff and it was awesome. No lies. All that stuff was as talked about. The levee is about the break. You can feel it. I really want just a sudden album drop in the next few weeks. World tour starts in 3 weeks and not a word on the album. Something has gotta give and soon.
