July 17, 201014 yr I don't know anyone that does. They're definitely not lol. Though you have to admit Funeral is a great record.
July 17, 201014 yr Here all media was full of praise like 'OMGtheyrethebestbandever" after their gig last month. Funeral is very good I agree.
July 17, 201014 yr yeah loads of music mags and stuff always claim they're the best band ever, they are a f***ing excellent band, but best ever, i think not, if anything that puts me off them. infact the one review I have read of 'The Suburbs' so far has been like 'this just backs up they are the best band on earth'.
July 17, 201014 yr who wrote that lolol? any publiucation / media source who refers to ANY band as 'the best band ever' or anything of the sort is a $h!tty music mag. so weird because i haven't read that anywhere. i actually haven't seen a single decade list that listed funeral as the best of 2000-2009, closest was pitchfork which put it at #2 if i can recall.
July 18, 201014 yr It's just that certain people have decided they're the best at the moment. Arcade Fire and The National. Other opinions should remain silent. This is the USSR :P Where that 'the best band right now' nonsense came from, I don't really know. Maybe they're bland enough to win everyone over and have the indie factor just right.

July 18, 201014 yr yeah NME lost relevance like 10/15/20 years ago, along with rolling stone to some degree. :/ shame.
July 19, 201014 yr NME are getting more back on track now they have lost that Connor McNicholas twat, but yeah that Arcade Fire article was still when he was editor like back in neon bible times.

July 23, 201014 yr I cant wait to get this album, if its half as good as there last 2 full albums i will be very happy.
July 24, 201014 yr Transcode though :( Unless there is a legit 320 rip somewhere :o yeah but you can barely notice.
July 26, 201014 yr Really liking this album after a couple of plays. Not as good as Funeral (not much is) but as good as Neon Bible I think
July 26, 201014 yr it's brilliant, loving many tracks. i think im finally decided im seeing them at Reading.
July 26, 201014 yr hemltlamIjU LOL LUV DIS It reminds me a lot of Buzzjack, actually. One of the most disturbing videos I've seen. Worst than 2 Girls 1 Cup.
July 26, 201014 yr yeah NME lost relevance like 10/15/20 years ago, along with rolling stone to some degree. :/ shame. Rolling Stone? hHahahaha...they liked Leona Lewis's monstrosity-single Bleeding Love and they deemed U2's All that You Can't Leave Behind as one of the best 100 albums of the 00s. Such a joke of a publication.
July 26, 201014 yr I'm not even remotely excited by the prospect of a new Arcade Fire album. :( I have no idea why either, I loved Funeral and Neon Bible was good too but I just can't help but feel that it's going to be a case of diminishing returns. I hope I'm wrong.
