Formed around the future husband and wife team of Win Butler and
Regine Chassagne in 1993, this powerful seven-piece band seemed to
define onstage dynamism before they discovered an audience. Once
beyond the obligatory low-budget debut EP, they fused their complex
instrumentation - piano, viola, French horn, accordion, harp and
hurdy gurdy etc - to produce Funeral, one of the greatest debut
albums in decades. This 1994 release, bolstered by hearty support
from the likes of David Bowie, David Byrne and U2, catapulted
Arcade Fire to worldwide success. Triumphant sets at the Coachella,
Reading and Latitude festivals only served to continue the
momentum. This book looks beyond the triumphs that gather in their
story, to discover a band who are determine to retain the pure yet
complex personal dynamic that always set them apart.
