That's an oxymoron. And I disagree because people have been doing baroque pop decades before Arcade Fire's label sent out press releases with words like 'awe-inspiring' and 'uplifting' in it, and better too.
Plus, on a personal note, I've always thought it was too much like church music, these really simple songs somehow made revelatory by being performed really loud by lots of people with a super-annoying religious zeal. Ill never be converted. IN THE BIN.
Oh yeah and 'the Neon Bible'?? gtfo. Sounds like a title Radiohead would come up with.
edit: but i would probably like them if i was under-18 and from Canada
