Arcade Fire are back with “The Suburbs” on Merge Records. This is a huge album for this band. With only two previous releases under its belt the band has built an enormous following based on their albums and live shows. This album seems a little subdued upon first listen. But, the more you listen the more you hear both musically and lyrically. They seem pretty happy in their skin and it shows. I have not been the biggest fan of this band. They just didn’t draw me in. I will say this one has sparked my interest and I assume super fans will drink it up with no problem. They just sold out two nights at Madison Square Garden so I expect we will be hearing more and more from this Canadian band on a mission. -Tony@Thinkindie
