There’s a certain irony about the album being recorded a lot in a Church and the main singer having several sexual misconduct allegations, but I’m better than that. Anyway, I am willing to brush the sexual misconduct under the rug and resume business though, something I bet never once uttered by a Pope before. Can’t say I have heard of Arcade Fire before today, sorry folks. I did however enjoy my introduction to them. I initially settled for a 3.5 on this one, but feel rounding up to a 4 is a more fitting score than a 3 - despite a hint of pretentiousness in some of the songs. The production on a good few of the songs is intriguing, and I reckon with a few more listens a couple of the songs will continue to grow on me. The usage of the organ/back up singers elevated this album for me. ‘My Body is a Cage’ is a nice conclusion to this tracklist. Overall, decent! I am now familiar with Arcade Fire, and look forward to hearing more of them. Songs added to playlist: (1) The Well and the Lighthouse (2) No Cars Go
