Arcade Fire - WE

[wHATcOLOR]

what do you guys think of it?

i was really not enjoying it through the first half, and then it seemed like a different album when you get to Lightning I, and I liked it reasonably well from there on out.

pretty short overall, just 40 mins.

did not care at all for Everything Now (2017), liked maybe 2 or 3 songs from Reflektor (2013), so i'd kind of written them off years ago

i'd seen that several reviews for this album were positive, so i avoided listening to any of the songs before the album was out so as not to skew my impression. i enjoy the good songs on this one enough to play it here and there depending on my mood. to be clear, my hair is not blown back, but the second half is decent enough. i was hoping it'd be more exciting or moving though


SEPARATE QUESTION -- i am perfectly happy to just make 1 thread where i put all my thoughts / questions on music, if folks feel my threads are cluttering the board. please opine if you feel strongly one way or another


ok -- anyhow -- i've only listened to it twice but feels nice to have some not sucky songs from this band again
