Shengus Khan Posted September 8, 2013 Share Posted September 8, 2013 Heard the song a few times on various sites before it was taken down and it really is wonderful. Cannot wait for the new album. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Christophe Posted September 9, 2013 Share Posted September 9, 2013 This new AF single is proper bo! Listening to it for the 3rd time now. Can't hear Bowie at all though, maybe he's only in the right channel, I've only got my left earbud in. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy_K_97 Posted September 9, 2013 Share Posted September 9, 2013 I like this a lot. How they continue to come up with such consistently brilliant material I do not know, but bring it on! I'd have liked to have seen Bowie taking a larger part in it, but I suppose when they do it live he won't be there. Still good to hear him. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CGR Posted September 9, 2013 Share Posted September 9, 2013 Absolutely superb. Going to be listening to this non-stop for days. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AirdrieGuy Posted September 9, 2013 Author Share Posted September 9, 2013 Here's the video which as DomDom rightly says is great. The more I listen to it, the more I think it's the best song so far this year. No idea how they keep releasing stuff of the quality they do, they're the best band around at the moment imo. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mynameisearl Posted September 10, 2013 Share Posted September 10, 2013 (edited) The more I listen to it, the more I think it's the best song so far this year. No idea how they keep releasing stuff of the quality they do, they're the best band around at the moment imo. Absolutely stunning song (and brilliant video too). In my opinion Arcade Fire have been the best band of the past few years and not since Radiohead has a band with such intricate music managed to evolve and change their direction so much whilst producing high quality material that still sounds unmistakably them.* *I don't know if I've worded that well but it makes sense in my head! Been lucky enough to see them about half a dozen times or so and every time they've been superb. Looking forward to the tour, hopefully it'll be announced soon.

DomDom Posted September 30, 2013 Share Posted September 30, 2013 These songs don't have the brilliant feel that "Reflektor" had, but I'm loving the sound that they're going for. "Normal Person" is magnificent as well. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AirdrieGuy Posted October 21, 2013 Author Share Posted October 21, 2013 Not as good as Reflektor, but it's still decent. Reminds me a bit of Half Light I. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RayBees Posted October 22, 2013 Share Posted October 22, 2013 I thought that Reflektor song, which 6music is creaming itself over, sounds like Gorillaz. Meh. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DomDom Posted October 23, 2013 Share Posted October 23, 2013 Did Gorillaz actually manage to do something half decent at some point? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrcat1990 Posted October 23, 2013 Share Posted October 23, 2013 Plastic Beach is an excellent album. Demon Days is great also while the debut has its momenw. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
