Arcade Fire cemented themselves as the biggest band in hipster history (hipstory?), when it won album of the year honors at the 2011 Grammys for its 2010 mega-hit album The Suburbs.
(Of course, everyone who was everyone with a curlicue mustache and skintight jeans know who they were long before that.)
The band’s follow-up, Reflektor (2013), a double album, would go straight to No. 1.
Now, word has finally started to leak out about their forthcoming album, Everything Now, slated for July 28. First it was announced that they’d signed to Columbia Records. Then, the title of their new album trickled out. And now, finally, some new music.
Listen to the title-track of the album above.
