Update

Checked Arcade Fire's website, saw this, got excited, contemplated the temporal-evaporative qualities of Saturday vs. other days of the week, felt human and inefficient, and became (for the moment) grounded.



In the meantime (what period of our lives isn't in the meantime?) let's enjoy one of their older songs, on which I've been sating myself for all these years since their last release. Live, there's few bands that compare to Arcade Fire's presence on stage, which is simply monstrous, a borderline out-of-body Blakean experience, sweat stinging the corneas, voice going scratchy, a fly-paper texture to the back of the throat, clothes damp, elated.
