There are several songs near the end of Reflektor that are fucking stupid good. Porno, Eurydice, Orpheus.

Reflektor 10/10

Afterlife 9.8/10
Supersymmetry 9/10
Porno 8.5

in the context of an SP board the expression "drop in quality" loses much of its meaning doesn't it

that occurred to me, but there are no two SP releases that even come close to how incongruous the quality of Reflektor and Everything Now are. It's like if you went from Adore to Teargarden

enthusaroo · 03-26-2023, 07:22 AM

Machina I and II 9.8
Zeitgeist 7.5
Oceania 6.5
Cyr 0.5
ATUM 0.666

redbreegull · 03-26-2023, 07:37 AM

lol is this album even called Everything Now? Did I make that up or is it real?

redbreegull · 03-26-2023, 07:38 AM

I do actually like Atum more than Cyr though

me too.. i think it's due to volume tho and ATUM having a bit more variety.. even if most of that variety isn't too varied and mostly crappy

so many stupid white men up in here who lost the point of the thread. gaslighting and being emotionally abusive is so normalized for y'all

TheAlter · 03-27-2023, 04:39 AM

I thought this was a white people thread, what are you doing here. You need more lemon pledge?

Joey Goldberg · 03-27-2023, 11:37 AM

nice place!

VERY true. Major drop off there. The newest one at least would then be a big step back up, but it of course is polluted by the subject matter of this thread, sadly.

Reflektor needed to be a single and trimmed back by a few. cuts. "Afterlife" on there is top 3 songs by the band for me. That thing is amazing.

I don't think I would have liked a shorter Reflektor. I think length is perfect imho. Afterlife yes def. top 3 Arcade Fire song.

I think there is a bigger drop off in quality between Zeitgeist and Teargarden than between Reflektor and Everything Now.. it's just not as noticeable because Teargarden was so drawn out and slowly released.

TheAlter · 10-23-2023, 10:44 AM

Any updates on this? I mean, besides that lunatic who said her songs weren't 'safe' when touring with AF?

A 'win-win' situation so far, innit

lol rofl

didn't said I worked on the record, idiot

I've simply been to the place!

TheAlter · 10-23-2023, 12:45 PM

Fuck you were there for then, to serve coffee? 'Hey fellas..."

Joey Goldberg · 10-23-2023, 01:05 PM

I was getting a tour of the place from a friend of mine who worked there

suffice to say it was not "The Fire" who was recording at the time, but damn that place was quite the abode

VoxUpDoc · 11-01-2023, 03:48 PM

Everything Now they wrote 4 bangers, and phoned the rest in. But…

Everything Now
Creature Comfort
Electric Blue
We Don’t Deserve Love

are decent enough.

What do you mean you're non-white, mayn. I thought you were Arcade Fire-white, Kyle Bobby Dunn-white even

vajohna · 11-26-2023, 03:43 AM

Not sure what happened that when I put on Arcade Fire's last album I didn't make it through what I think was the first song. Think I wasn't in the mood or I got busy or something. But yeah, Reflektor and the Her soundtrack were great.
