I still like you, Arcade Fire

This week I listened to Sound Check on NPR, where everyone was bashing Arcade Fire for being trendy, theatrical, various reasons. However, I really don't mind the new album, The Suburbs. Aside from the song Rococo, I've been obsessed with the song "Sprawl II (Mountains Beyond Mountains." It's like everything I've ever wanted of Blondie and Labyrinth together + flying dream sequences of mine.

"A 8mm film done by my sister while
in high school for a class project
in the 70's with music by Melanie
that finally got edited to tape"

She was the fine peaches of summer in the snow of winter, and she was cool milk for cereal on a hot early-June morning.
