Rather coincidently, I ordered their debut ("Funeral") from Amazon last night based on some astonishing reviews not least at Pitchfork Media (http://www.pitchforkmedia.com/record-reviews/a/arcade-fire/funeral.shtml). Some media clips here http://www.mergerecords.com/media.php?query_band_id=98 ; the album's not available in the UK but it's about #9 delivered from Amazon's marketplace. - -- Barry - -- Barry Whiting barry@urquell.freeserve.co.uk ===================================================================== Bunnymen Online Presence: http://www.bunnymenlist.com * http://www.bunnymen.info * http://www.bunnymen.com * http://www.fotolog.net/sgtfuzz/ * http://bunnymen.nexuswebs.net/ * http://www.angelfire.com/wy2/discog/ * ====================================================================== ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 28 Nov 2004 10:53:33 -0500 From: wynd Subject: Re: seven-seas Arcade Fire Good stuff, thanks; Can't put my finger on that bit of sample or redo near the end of "Wake Up."
