I don't quite get why they are trying to hold this dude up to a much higher standard than TI or any other musician that gets rave reviews.

They must see it as a Win-Win situation.

Sorry Bob, but that's bad.

They're ALL bad.

Whoa whoa whoa. I wouldn't listen to an Arcade Fire record for a hundred dollars, but TI is some good shit, bruh.

yeah yeah. TI's cool and all, but it ain't the most profound or original lyricism ever written and recorded. I just used that, if memory serves me correctly, because PF raved about him like he was Tupac's reincarnated soul.

After a few listens, I like this one overall quite a bit more than Funeral. There are some absolute clunkers on here, though.

And snap: the arcade fire loses it's best new music rating to patrick wolf after just 3 days, and to a lower rated record. looks like everyone's favorite indie music website is being catty again.
