CHRLY Posted November 9, 2016 Report Share Posted November 9, 2016 arcadefire man knows how to make us all feel jealous. For the record: 1) Funeral 2) Neon Bible 3) The Suburbs 4) Reflektor disc 2 5) EP 6) Reflektor disc 1 I know Reflektor is one album, but I split it up so I could get the EP in there to prove I'm a true fan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evilduck Posted November 9, 2016 Report Share Posted November 9, 2016 I always forget about the EP. It's got Headlights Look Like Diamonds though, so it automatically goes above Suburbs and Reflektor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kaytee... Posted November 9, 2016 Report Share Posted November 9, 2016 This video of Regine accepting her honorary doctorate made me smile on this otherwise shitty day. On the subject of ranking albums, my mind changed again after listening to Neon Bible today for the first time in ages 1. Funeral (has to be since I had the artwork branded on me forever) 2. Neon Bible 3. The Suburbs 4. Reflektor 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been being too generous to it. I tried the album a few times and just could not get into it. Absolute mediocrity. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DGrant261 Posted November 10, 2016 Report Share Posted November 10, 2016 1. The Suburbs 2. Funeral 3. Neon Bible 4. Reflektor Very close but Suburbs just edges it over funeral, it has too many bangers to not be top: sprawl ii, half light ii, deep blue, modern man etc. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan R Posted November 10, 2016 Report Share Posted November 10, 2016 Funeral Reflektor Neon Bible The Suburbs Close between Reflektor and Neon Bible, but think that Reflektor has some of the best music they've ever written on there even if it could have put together a bit better. Though for a band trying to go in a different direction and try something new, it's a fantastic effort. The Suburbs, while great, sounds too much like them trying to sound like Arcade Fire without offering much new. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
siweltrebor Posted November 10, 2016 Report Share Posted November 10, 2016 Arcade Fire was the worst crowd i've been surrounded by at the Pyramid for a headliner. Kanye was easily the most restless crowd I've seen at the Pyramid, he really lost the casual interest in the middle section of his set.

Noeliam Posted November 10, 2016 Report Share Posted November 10, 2016 Having relistened to Neon Bible, this is my new ranking. Funeral (no doubt about it) Reflektor CD 2 Neon Bible The Suburbs Reflektor CD 1 The Suburbs is a great album though, and I like some songs on Reflektor 1 (Reflektor, Joan of Arc, Here Comes The Night Time I). CD 2 is ace with 6 great songs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Am I the only one who views this as an impossible task? The order of all 4 constantly changes for me. I'm the same. Funeral is always top but the other 3 are completely interchangeable depending on my mood. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully, maybe late summer.

Simpo Posted November 12, 2016 Report Share Posted November 12, 2016 Sounds about right. Will said spring, but that was a while ago, and things inevitably drift back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tommy101 Posted November 14, 2016 Report Share Posted November 14, 2016 Do you think there will be many UK dates next year? I've recently introduced them to my parents and would love to take them to see AF but would rather avoid IOW if I can. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I imagine they will do a couple of warm up shows here before IOW and then an arena tour towards the end of next year. If the Reflektor tour is anything to go by though, there won't be that many dates. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
