You know, a lot of people do various “jams”. Sci doesn’t do jams. Well, ok, I love blackberry. But in general I don’t think any of the music I listen to qualifies as a “jam”.
Anyway, Mr. S took me a little bit ago to see Arcade Fire in concert! It was a bit of a trip but totally worth. If you don’t listen to Arcade Fire, you should give them a try. And if you’re into “indie” (or whatever the kids are calling it these days) you will DEFINITELY like Arcade Fire. They aren’t really the best SINGERS in the world. But everything they sing, they sing with PASSION!!!! They’re all singing about “we remember bedrooms/and our parents bedrooms/and the bedrooms of our friends”, and you’re like “YES!!!!! YES WE DO!!!” and you don’t really know why.
Check it out:
(That one is off their album “Neon Bible”, and is my favorite)

(This one is arguably the one that made them famous. Or as famous as you feel you are allowed to be if you’re going to maintain your cred and not “sell out”)
They also just released a new album “The Suburbs”, which I got my grubby little paws on the day it came out. It’s very much like the previous albums in tone, though less apocalyptic than “Neon Bible”, and with a lot heavier piano influence. Sci likey.
