I really liked the album when it came out. Then I listened to it some more, and realized I was practically forcing myself to like it.

Now, after a few whirls, I can safely say: The Suburbs is the worst Arcade Fire album. I mean, seriously, Rococo is like the worst song they ever released, Modern Man is annoying, Month of May tries to be catchy and energetic and just ends up as a steaming pile. Most other songs are a bit bland, and lack the depth of previous albums, IMO.

The only tracks I did kinda like are Spawl, the title track, and Half Light II. Other than that, it's just not good enough. Might be high expectations on my part, dunno.

But hey, what do I know, I liked Neon Bible better than Funeral.
