For whatever reason, I've never managed to listen to Neon Bible all the way through. My relationship with Arcade Fire has always been a curious one, in fact. Way back when (2004, I think), before they broke big I missed the chance to see them in some small Manchester venue or other, solely due to laziness. I struggled for years to admit how great Funeral truly is, for fear of buying into the hype that surrounded the band.
Flash forward to 2010, however, and a new Arcade Fire album seems like something worth getting excited for. Judge for yourself: One Thirty BPM have four of the songs for you to listen to, and after a couple of listens I'm quietly impressed with all of them. Due August 2nd, the sixteen track length suggests that this will be their most ambitious release to date, and I for one am eagerly anticipating it.
