Wake Up

Sometimes I worry that maybe I give the impression that I think all "new" music sucks, or something. Quite the contrary, actually. I like a lot of new bands, new albums, etc. The Arcade Fire's Funeral was, I think, an outstanding album. Probably one of the best made the year it came out. Unfortunately, for me, I'm afraid this band will go down with Television (Marquee Moon), Gang of Four (Entertainment!), and other groups whose first albums were, for me, the climax of their careers. The first album had such an impact on me that anything else they do just seems like shit. I still love the first album, though...
