Arcade Fire - Suburban War
This town’s so strange
They built it to change
And while you’re sleeping, the streets, they all rearrange.
Sorry dudes, but The Suburbs is even doper than Funeral. Coming to this conclusion is how I know I am no longer a hipster boy and am now a hipster adult.
and that day, when the ill-witted masses had to do nothing more than have an iTunes account and pay attention to the perplexing uproar following a certain Grammy-award-naming announcement to procure the same music you had spent hours trying to illegally download on Napster when you were young enough to still be looking at web pages made with Angelfire, you realized you were indeed a hipster, and a grown one at that, because you could make comparative statements like the above without selling out and actually understand what you were saying without referring to an article from the likes of Pitchfork or Spin or Kanye West’s Twitter account. but nothing matters anymore because the suburbs beget the hipsters, and then The Suburbs came back to tell them it was ok to let go of all of that. “we understand,” they said. “this is why you’re you, and it’s why we’re that way too.”
WOW TRUE.
