On Arcade Fire
Books & Culture really, really likes Arcade Fire:
... Arcade Fire had me at Hello. The music felt somehow medieval and fresh and urgent all at once, with strings and electric guitar, marching band, minstrel/gypsy/ troubadour fare coming out of a tavern full of clear-eyed, optimistic, coed worker priests. It felt wise and young and in unself-conscious continuity with some long forgotten, undeniably authoritative, ancient broadcast, a dusty, old, strong-as-an-oak culture.

I could go for a cigar about now. And a cigar while listening to Arcade Fire would be nice, too.
