Arcade Fire – Funeral 7⭐

Arcade Fire’s journey started with a funeral, and it’s a fun one. I like these fellas and their cheeky lyrics and odd instruments. For a debut album this is pretty rockin’, though a bit shaky. “Wake Up” and “Rebellion” are definitely the best on “Funeral”, the rest is a bit shy and messy.

Some artists start high on their first couple albums and then the quality starts to take a dive, or they no longer know how to stay current and just rehash the same old ideas. This is definitely not the case. It’s a daring leap that got them flying later on.

I’m Seb: kind of working in IT, kind of working on other things as well – jack of all trades and master of none, and that’s how I like it.

I should have been a court’s “jester and weird artist in residence”, but capitalism made it such that I have to work during the day to support techno-feudalism and do my hobbies in my spare time. This is where I’m posting attempts at art, whacks at writing, rolls of reviews, bucket list blunders, artificial articles and a hodgepodge of hobby histories.

Stick around for stories on slow, retro, and analogue living, odd history, weird finds, half-baked reviews, alternative media and a big folder labelled “misc”.
