No ways the suburbs is better than any of radioheads albums, not because they are not sofisticated, but because they are extremely boring. I like just 5 songs, specially suburban war, the other 4 of my "favorite" 5 are alright, but they sound like a copy of a lot of my favorite songs. I don't find creativity in them, though I think they make good music, it is plain, boring and repetitive. I have listened to every album, and I don't feel they have moved from their comfort zone, always the same.<br /><br />I think in 10 years, arcaded fire will be like every other rock band. <br />And definetely, oasis, the vines, and all the bands you mentioned are 10 times better than arcade fire.<br /><br />Byeedohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12335559753011532700noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17094727.post-39335275414744876592010-09-08T01:39:18.976-04:002010-09-08T01:39:18.976-04:00I love Arcade Fire!

...Great review. This album is definitely awesome. <br /><br />I just found this awesome video of Arcade Fire doing a "Take Away Show," if you're a fan of Neon Bible I suggest you check it out!<br /><br />http://www.ourstage.com/blog/2010/8/12/viewer-discretion-advised-la-blogotheque-the-take-away-showsBeccanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17094727.post-38325170614379262572010-08-27T08:06:04.901-04:002010-08-27T08:06:04.901-04:00Excellent review.

At the same time the Suburbs stands in a class of it's own. Arguably the most complete album I've ever encountered, it is one of the rare releases that is truly greater than the sum of it's parts. As you note there are no standout tracks persay, rather the album begs to be listened to as a whole if one is to appreciate it's full essence and depth. It also posseses a theatrical element which recalls to mind such album film/stage adapations as the Wall or Quadrophenia. Indeed, I'd not be surprised to see it made into a musical sometime in the future, though in many ways I hope that never happens as I fear it would only detract from what is already a perfect work of art.Jhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02143844559280145613noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17094727.post-8437503363342516982010-08-27T08:02:53.241-04:002010-08-27T08:02:53.241-04:00This comment has been removed by the author.Jhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02143844559280145613noreply@blogger.com
