The Greatest Non Hits
Arcade Fire: Funeral
Dive into the haunting, anthemic world of Arcade Fire's debut masterpiece "Funeral" as we explore the album that redefined indie rock in the 2000s. This Montreal collective burst onto the scene with a sound that was both intimate and expansive, crafting songs from personal tragedy that somehow managed to feel universally uplifting.
What makes "Funeral" so powerful nearly two decades after its 2004 release? We unpack the album's unique structure, from the interconnected "Neighborhood" series to standout tracks like "Power Out" and the deeply personal "Haiti." While hits like "Wake Up" and "Rebellion (Lies)" brought the band commercial success, we focus on the overlooked gems that showcase the band's remarkable artistic range.
Behind the music lies a fascinating story of creative collaboration. Win Butler and Régine Chassagne lead a revolving collective of musicians wielding everything from traditional rock instruments to strings, accordions, and even hurdy-gurdys. This orchestral approach creates the album's signature sound – simultaneously melancholic and triumphant, blending influences from post-punk to classical arrangements.
The album's title wasn't chosen lightly. Created during a period when several band members lost relatives, "Funeral" transforms grief into something transcendent. Chassagne's Haitian heritage brings additional depth, connecting personal loss to historical trauma in ways that elevate these songs beyond typical indie rock fare.
Whether you're revisiting this album or discovering it for the first time, join us as we celebrate the simple lines intertwining throughout this landmark release. From its emotional storytelling to its innovative instrumentation, "Funeral" remains not just Arcade Fire's defining statement, but a testament to music's power to transform sorrow into shared catharsis.
All right, thank you for listening to the Greatest Non-Hits. I'm Chris, and playing the song Rebellion parentheses Lies is my co-host and neighbor, tim. Again, thank you for listening. This is Arcade Fire's funeral episode, their debut album, critically acclaimed.
Speaker 1:Arcade Fire, if you don't know, they're a Canadian band out of Montreal, quebec, and I would say that they would call them an indie rock band. They're known for a unique sound, really energetic live performances. This album was recorded in 2004. So Arcade Fire, they're a uh that formed in 2001 in montreal. It was the hometown of the, the founding members, and uh. Win butler is the, the lead lead guy. He met uh, who ended up becoming his wife, regine shesanya. I think that's how it's uh, kind of like champagne but shesanya. I think that's how it's kind of like champagne but Chesanya. Other members Richard Reed Perry, tim Kingsbury, jeremy Garra, will Butler, the younger brother of Wynn, also performed as well, but this is their debut album. This is considered one of their best albums in the 2000s of all, all, all the albums, but also one of their best albums. So, um, it's got kind of a dark side to it a little bit. Uh, you know, it's just about, uh, the deaths of several of the band members relatives, which, uh, influenced the you know the emotional, depth, thematicatic content, things like that. So it was critically and commercially successful. They won numerous awards. After this one, they won Grammys in 2011 for Album of the Year, for another album, suburbs, which was another one of their albums.
Speaker 1:I think they come out with like instead of like coming out with an album like, which was, uh, another one of their apps. I think they come out with like instead of like coming out with an album like every other year. There's one of these bands that just writes a hit album and then another hit album like four or five years later. So their albums are spread out, but they're all super quality. Um, they're known for like an uh, an eclectic uh, for like, an eclectic musical style. They're anthemic, that kind of thing. What else can I say about them? Regine Chassagne plays a lot of different instruments, as does Will Butler. Winn Butler is the driving force. He was, I think, like the original member that like brought it all together. So, um, just a lot of people collaborating, like. When you watch their 2015, you know live at earl court in lond. It's super energetic. They're all in sync with one another. There's like maybe 12 or 13 people on the stage. So they've got that core membership that I just name checked. But they've got a lot of other people, you know, like a lot of backup singers, rhythm section, they've got all kinds of stuff going on.
Speaker 1:So we're gonna listen to all the songs, as we always do, and then we're gonna rank our top three non-hits. So there's a number of songs here that I mean tim and I talked a little bit about this, uh, before. There's like four different songs, for the first five songs are named neighborhoodhood One, two, three and four. They've got parentheses, all that stuff. The third song, un Ame Sans Lumiere, which is like another year, something like that, or One Year Without Light. That's it, that's the translation.
Speaker 1:Some of the other songs, like wake up, is a really popular one. It's been a lot of commercials and on the radio that kind of thing, and rebellion lies in parentheses. Sonic tim's playing gets a lot of plays as well. Those are the two big ones. So I guess if we're gonna exclude, if we can consider them hits, I mean I would, um, I mean I, I'll be up front right now. I think the rebellion is probably my favorite song on this. Uh, this album, um, wake up is good too, you know. You know it's all it's all good. I mean too, you know, you know it's all it's all good. I mean, got the hockey playing here. They're hockey arcade fire.
Speaker 2:I am fire.
Speaker 1:I whoa, that got weird real quick. That was tim, yeah, so we're gonna have a lot of funny sound clips. We're gonna be cracking jokes to and fro, uh, but you know, because of the nature of this album, you know we don't want to. Yeah, a lot of it is about, like, family members. The song haiti is about, uh, like shes saying, shesanya is um of both, I think, african and haitian, and Canadian descent, so a lot of her relatives from Haiti who were killed in massacres from the past are referenced in the song Haiti. We're dealing with some heavy themes, but all in the context of good fun. So, without further ado, here's Tim. How's it going? Bud, yeah, yeah, yeah, the nap of my life and we're just going to flush all the lies down the toilet here. Okay, we're going to be reborn after this funeral here Reborn.
Speaker 1:Let's hope for that. Yeah, I do too. Well, good, any parting words before we get into the songs. A little air hockey. What I spent a lot of time in that Time crisis? Sure, all those. What was your favorite game, Frogger? That was a great Pac-Man buying the Frogger machine.
Speaker 1:There's one called Defender, that was kind of cool. There was Joust Pac-Man. Tapper was good. Knockout pac-man, oh tapper. Yeah, tapper was good. Knockout bald bull piston, hurricane glass joe glass joe was easy. He just like knocked him out like three, three or four punches. Yeah, we should get some quarters and go and just have a good time.

It was before she was married, though according to him, yeah. So it's a great album. It hits in the feels a lot. You know a lot of a lot of doubles and triples with the jokes with the arcade and the fire and the yada, yada, yep, you know, get your get your Mountain Dew, get your get your mozzarella. Let's go, yep, okay.

I think there was like a uprising in the 60s. There was a dictator and family members that were killed in those uprisings.
Speaker 2:It's like a very personal song, I've heard it.
Speaker 1:I mean we could look up the translation. I think the native language does it justice.
Speaker 2:I'm feeling justice.
Speaker 1:It goes back and forth in English. I kinda like that In the river we will go. He was the dictator, yeah. Hunting stops for spirits, guns, killing, killing soldiers. They're saying all the undead born in army.
Speaker 2:All the tears of us. I'm searching for the past. I'm searching for the past. I'm searching for the past. I'm searching for the past, I'm searching. There are a lot of those games that are playing this time.

Speaker 1:Now here's the sun, it's alright. Butler's voice.
Speaker 2:Yeah, coming from the gut.
Speaker 1:It's a another anthem Every time you close your eyes you know what's underappreciated the violin, the strings, on all these songs. We should be praising a lot of that. I like how they pepper in all those other little instruments like the xylophone. There's so much going on and then in the live video they've got the guys in the back playing the percussion. They do bring in a lot of different styles and elements and instruments that are both electronic, synthetic as well as organic, hurdy-gurdy, all that. I mean it's kudos to them for throwing the whole kitchen sink at it, kind of a thing, right? So we've got a couple more coming. I think when are we at?
Speaker 1:I think, it's the last one? Yeah well, time flies when you're having fun. Oh my gosh, so many mom jokes I want to put in there. It's a classy show, I don't know what to write.
Speaker 2:Oh, steve, my family trees Losing all its leaves, crashing towards the travesty.

Speaker 2:To melt the street beneath your feet. To melt the street.
Speaker 1:Beneath your feet To melt the street.
Speaker 2:Beneath your feet. I'll stay In the night I've been lying To dry. Poor house. That's depressing. That's depressing.
Speaker 1:Can you imagine your life just being, yeah, the NBA your whole life. Yeah, you've just been trying to get your license.
Speaker 2:You gotta go back to the NBA.
Speaker 1:They keep telling you you forgot something, you didn't sign something, you gotta go back, yeah, and then the fees increase.
Speaker 2:I do not want to shout out to the other people Now I'm getting a little bit clamped In the backseat.
Speaker 3:Now I'm getting a little bit clamped.
Speaker 2:I don't have to try, I don't have to speak Anyhow, anyhow you think that I'm just?
Speaker 1:Poor, sad thing, though.
Speaker 2:Anyhow, he thinks he's gonna get back together for you. This is the. This is the climax here.
Speaker 1:Woo Woo, there's going to have to be owls out there.
Speaker 2:Woo Woo this way. Woo Woo, woo, woo, woo, woo, woo, woo, woo, woo, woo Woo.
Speaker 3:Woo, woo, woo, woo, woo, woo Woo.
Speaker 1:Woo Woo. Yeah, we could Do it over this. We'll play in the background.
Speaker 2:Okay.
Speaker 1:All right, yeah, so what are you thinking about with number three? All right, yeah, so what are you thinking about with number three? Oh, good choice, mm-hmm, yep, I agree.
Speaker 1:Mm-hmm. Very worthy, mm-hmm. Okay, good one. Number three is this is what we're listening to in the backseat Very worthy, okay, good one. Number three is this what we're listening to in the backseat? This is my number three. I just think it's a beautiful song and it's touching and I'm genuinely very Clint. Alice died and, yeah, I'm feeling for it. Yeah, yeah, so, yeah, so, number three. You're on number two. Mm Should be there. Yes, I wanted you know. That is worthy of being on the top three. I'm going to go.
Speaker 1:Number two Haiti, which you listed as number three. I think it was. Yeah, just the story. I like the story behind it. I like the story behind it. I like how the artist makes herself vulnerable and puts it all out there in prose, the humanizing. I wasn't aware of that massacre and that brought that to my attention. It helps you look through those experiences that brought that to my attention and, uh, it takes you, helps you look through those experiences with, uh, a human standpoint, instead of it just being something that you read about as another killing or another massacre. So, um, I bet you, a lot of families from all over the world can relate to it. So, anyway, that's number two for me over the world can relate to it. So anyway, that's number two for me.
Speaker 1:Wow, great outro. I love that outro. That was great. Yes, I did. I liked it too. I guess honorable mention for in the backseat, maybe it. But honestly, yeah, neighborhood number three, power powers out, that's your number one. Yeah, mine too, man, that was great. Yeah, yes, neighborhood three power out my number one as well. Yeah, it's just an energetic song. I liked the xylophone in it. There was a chorus. They're doing what they're doing best on that. It's the anthem of it. It's just that ending part of it. That sounded a lot like Radiohead was cool. I liked how they drew that influence and made it their own. That was cherry on top.
Speaker 3:Here is the frogger, this is the front door and this is the outlet. That's right, it really did fill the, you know, simple lines intertwining.
Speaker 1:It really did feel, you know simple lines intertwining when I was jamming on this. It was natural to find these sort of you know riffs that sort of sit in the pocket.
Speaker 2:Yep, the songs have a circular feel to them.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I mean, don't get me wrong, there's some barbershop raga in there, there's no question about that. But it's just the way you know, like you said, simple lines intertwining. It's the way it's all put together it is. It is innovative, right, and it's all a part of a theme funeral it's, you know it's. It's well done for being a, you know, kind of a depressing topic or such. Funerals are insane. Funerals are insane. All right, any last words. So that was a good one, man.
Speaker 3:Yeah.
Speaker 1:Yep, all right. All right, zip it in and zip it out.
