It's the 10 year anniversary of the classic album, "The Suburbs", by the amazing band Arcade Fire. In honor of this tremendous record, I brought my friend Thomas Fine on to discuss the greatness of the album, and pick our favorite tracks. Thomas Fine is an old band mate of mine, we spent many years traveling up and down the state and inside practice rooms making music in The Iron Heart & Once Over. It was great to catch up with him and talk about one of our mutually favorite albums. Arcade Fire are a Canadian band who have conquered the music industry critically and artistically, and perhaps peaked on this album, "The Suburbs". It is a semi-conceptual and themed record, and it's musically dense but also catchy and easy to digest. In my opinion, I think their best album is "Everything Now", but on "The Suburbs" they hit at something that was unique, and ended up winning them the Album of the Year Grammy. Check out this episode, it was a lot of fun chatting with Tom and discussing this wonderful record.
