As you may or may not know, The Arcade Fire is one of m'very favorite bands. To me, you will be hard pressed to find someone who rocks better than them. As an example, here is one of my bestest, most favoritist of their songs, 4%20Intervention.mp3 . Melissa and I saw them in LA last year, and the energy at that show was unmatched by pretty much any other band I have ever seen.
But in addition to making amazing songs, they are breaking new ground by utilizing the worldwide net to their advantage. For example, they have created a few mini websites for some of the songs off their latest album, Neon Bible. These sites act like music videos for the songs, but the cool thing is that you can interact with each site and control what is going on by rolling over and clicking around. For a good time, click on the following links to see what I am talking about. Spend some time with them, they are way cool:
