Artist - Arcade Fire
This has to be one of the most revolutionary albums i have ever listened to. The mix of the Arcade Fire's unique instrument and the rock/opera singing combines to create a sound that i have never witnessed. The group is unusual, a combination of seven muscians, and an array of strange instruments, including organ and violin. Although the group appear some what far off what a stereotypical 'band' is expected to look like these days, the music that they produce is unique and it sends a shiver down your spine. They are unique, and at times appear a bit too unique, striving for what is called 'the ultimate sound' and they don't quite make it, and some of the songs end up dragging a bit leaving you with a loathing sort of feeling. This is only evident in some of the songs, and is easily forgotten once you move on to the rest of the album. Although at first you may not be so intrigued by all the songs, i tell you to persevere and you will see how good they really are, it took me a few times to really like all the songs. Arcade Fire, unknown to most of the people in the world, are a unique taste i admit, but a unique taste that everyone should adapt too. I am looking foward to their next album and i emplore you to buy this bible of genius.
