Hey all
In my Arcade Fire review I was at pains to point out that some of their music was, and I quote, "pretentious musical wankery masquerading as some sort of artistic statement".
I also compared them to two prog bands of the 70s, Yes and Genesis.
I feel the need to point out that I personally enjoy the work of Genesis, and some of Yes's work also - in fact it may turn up being reviewed at some stage.
Rest assured that even though I quite like much of their 70s output, I will be more than happy to call out their pretentious musical wankery when it presents itself, in the name of objectivity. Either that, or I will make sure to explain why their pretentious musical wankery is actually of value.
Cheers all, back to the album reviews....
