The Arcade Fire have released a third single from their upcoming album, and for the first time, it actually sounds promising. While the only version available was cut from a radio broadcast by BBC's
Zane Lowe, it doesn't detract from the fact that this is an awesome sneak peak, and a confidence booster at that. I found myself to be anything but enamored by their
first releases, but with this UK single, they've boosted my faith in the band. Even though I didn't much enjoy their last release Neon Bible (see
Five Amazing Bands that Disappointed), I'd be lying if I said I didn't have high hopes for this album. What's your take? Do you think Arcade Fire's latest album will live up to the hype?
