Do you know the band Arcade Fire?

No?

Well, let me tell you they aren't a "rap band" from Somalia. OH NO!

They are an instrument band from French Canadia.

They smell pretty bad but some of their tunes are fucking solid (as fuck).

They have committed four albums to vinyl (cd, minidisc whatever)

I'm going to choose a couple of songs off each album to enlighten you American peasants. Deal?

OK, let's begin:

No Cars Go.

I'll tell you what's not creepy.

These lyrics:

"Your father was a pervert
Face down in the dirt
He taught you how to hurt"

I have friends that are into them but I never got into them, personally.

Everyone should know them. Didn't they win a Grammy a few years back?

I'd have assumed they were pretty well known but I dunno about the grammy.

I love 'em.

Yea, they won Album of the Year in 2011 for the album "The Suburbs", beating out Eminem, Katy Perry and Lady Gaga. It was a pretty shocking moment at the time.

No you mention it, it rings a bell.

Shame it's their worst album.

Art - go figure.

Definitely Rebellion (Lies). I love almost all of Funeral but couldn't get into later records.

Good band and all of Canada knows their shit. Pretty solid albums, makes for good road trip or camping tunes.
