I wish I went to such a school...

It's been already weeks (months?) the internet is buzzing around the new Arcade Fire album. Some songs were leaked one by one, sometimes successfully removed from blogs by the band, but obviously it was just temporary, and bloggers, despite how much they love the band, can't be trusted! So the big news today is that Neon Bible is leaked.

I dont know yet if I'm going to listen to it. I've already been a bit disappointed by much expected albums I found leaked weeks before the official date of release, so we'll see... I'll probably wait and start listening to it a few days before the offical relase date, because I want it to be fresh when I see them live in Brixton. But not right now. It's way too early.

Anyway, the other interesting thing I found about them is that Youtube video from Pitchfork. Arcade Fire plays this great song, Intervention, at Canterbury High School, Ottawa. But apart from the song, what struck me most is the end of the video, when the camera is filming kids running around in the room... Crazy... I wish I had such bands coming to my school! I mean, I just wish I had bands coming to my school!
