Matt & Kim @ The Phoenix

October 29, 2010

They were LIVE. I definitely don't think I prepared for the rowdy-ness of the night. Jordan and I were front row and by the end of the show the people around us were all different. We pretty much held on to the bars with our lives! It was so much fun! :D The fans were a little annoying at the beginning, but it's the type of thing you expect from all ages shows, heh heh heh. Anyhow, they played an amazing set and Kim was absolutely amazing! She got past the baracades and trusted the fans to carry both her feet in the air... Like Jesus effin Christ YOU CRAZY WOMAN! It was amazing.

Arcade Fire: The Suburbs

Arcade Fire, The Suburbs.

The Montreal's groups' third album release since Neon Bible in 2007. Released August 2, the Album is con-prised of 16 songs which are relative to the Album title. I love it! What I really love about it is how nicely the album flows together. Song Sequels that take you from the beginning to the end with the great excitement similar to the Neighbourhood songs, to the mellowness that was Crown of Love, Arcade Fire did it again! :D

Quick Facts:

-Markus Dravs helped produce a lot of the album. He also did Coldplay's Viva la Vida and Mumford & Son's Sigh No More.

-Lyrical content inspired by Win and William Butler's Suburban Upbringing.

-Album described by the Band as a Letter from The Suburbs.

-Album was recorded in both Quebec and New York.

-Also known as Sonny Moore (January 15, 1988 ) from From First to Last

Conclusion: Sonny seems like a pretty cool guy to have entered the music scene at age 16 with From First to Last. Now that he's 22 he has done so much for himself from working with big names such as Rocket Summer and Bring me the Horizon. I like his Electo Style and am SUPER pumped for his set at Wrong Bar this coming December (Click here to buy tickets/$15). Hopefully I see you there! :D
