Claude says:You caught the deluxe edition of Arcade Fire's suburban epic in 2015, a record that builds its whole world around the anxiety and ennui of growing up in strip-mall North America—Win Butler's vocals fracturing over those building orchestrations, that sense of something beautiful collapsing. The Suburbs Deluxe added extra material to an album already dense with longing, and while you only spun it the once, "The Suburbs" itself sits at the heart of everything Arcade Fire became: ambitious, a little exhausted, impossibly cinematic.
