Arcade Fire's latest album The Suburbs will definitely hold its weight when it comes to Best Album of 2010. My only problem with it, is that I haven't found that one track that really stands out above the rest. With Funeral it was Wake Up (obviously) and with Neon Bible it was Keep The Car Running.
Finally, after a lot of listens, I have settled on Ready To Start to be that track. It has that great Arcade Fire sound and it also brings that build up element that many of their other songs have. There are several points where you think the song could come to a crashing halt but it continues. When it finally does come to that crashing halt, you want it to go on for five more minutes. In which case, I suggest just putting the song on repeat.
Make sure to comment on whether or not you've A) heard of it or not B) liked it or not and C) whether you would listen to more of the artist.
