Arcade Fire have shared a snippet of the new song ‘Awful Sound‘ in a post on Twitter. Have a look below.
The short clip features footage of the band in studio, and offers another preview of their upcoming double album ‘Reflektor‘, which is due for release on October 29th.
Speaking to Zane Lowe last month, Arcade Fire’s frontman Win Butler said the LP will be a traditional double-sided affair, with two very distinct halves.
“It’s longer than ‘The Suburbs’ – it’s a double record – mostly down to the fact that the songs are a lot longer,” he said. “I mean, ‘Reflector’ is seven-and-a-half, there’s another couple of seven-minute songs on the record and so it made more sense to stretch it out to two records with two distinct sides. It’s more of a classic double LP vibe where you have to flip the side and it takes you to a different place.”
