The Arcade Fire
5 August, 2008
The Arcade Fire are a band who are Canadian, and ALSO they are a husband-wife band. Isn’t that queer? Edwin Butler and Régine Chassagne resurrected a band formed in 1995 which Edwin was in college, the sole remaining other member being a chap named William Butler. Their lyrics are strong and emotional and their live shows, of which I have unfortunately as yet notattended, are apparently quite an experience. They are maybe somewhat forcibly dramatic, but charming nonetheless.
