I wanted to answer both, but my hate for Arcade Fire even surpasses my love of Wilco.

I do too. But not so much of what I've heard from the new one.

I tend to enjoy them, but I haven't really listened to the new album all that much.
Their persona is kind of getting in the way of the music, and slowly turning me off to their older work as well.
I might just be bit too old for that sort of bullshit.

"Sucks" doesn't really emphasise my dislike.

"Detestable turds-in-a-cunt who should be beaten with shovels" is edging closer.

I get annoyed by them personally, but not enough to keep me from enjoying the songs that honestly are pretty good. Mostly, as others have said, those songs tend to be older.

I know it's a joke I'm supposed to get, but I'm blanking.

It's a Will Ferrell line from Stepbrothers in response to John C. Reilly dropping a stupid rap at the dinner table.

Much like late 20's adult Mark Clark coming in here once every 6 months and posting some asinine bullshit.

"Intervention" is a fucking amazing song. Everything else goes down on a straight line from ok to terrible.

I like them a lot, Reflektor definitely suffers from "double album that should have been a single album" syndrome though.
