Arcade Fire – Funeral

Arcade Fire – Funeral

Arcade Fire came together in Montreal and recorded Funeral during one of the city’s famously harsh winters, and you can feel that intensity in every note. Their debut is an eccentric, fearless rock record: strange one moment, instantly familiar the next, equally beautiful and unsettling, theatrical yet deeply sincere.

What makes Funeral so powerful is its total disregard for rules and expectations. The songs swell, break apart, and rebuild themselves with thrilling unpredictability. At times it feels like a high-pitched David Byrne fronting echoes of Echo & The Bunnymen, early Roxy Music, Björk, and plenty in between. Emotional, explosive and unforgettable, Funeral is a strikingly beautiful pop album.
