02.15.11 | I would hate to win a Grammy. It really only means that you're appealing to the most clueless of white people. |
NigelH
02.15.11 | LOL, that was amazing. Glad they inspired so much negative reaction from tards. They are too damn weird to ever truly be mainstream, and for that, I am grateful. |
TMobotron
02.15.11 | oh shit i had a facebook friend post some shit that was just ridiculous about this but im too lazy to screencap it |
Inveigh
02.15.11 | "Don't know who the Arcade Fire is..."
"that was the song lol the band is The Suburbs"
haha these are all jokes right |
TMobotron
02.15.11 | holy fuck though, reading this shit is simultaneously hilarious and so god damn infuriating. |
Josh D.
02.15.11 | I don't like them, but its funny to see people calling them The Suburbs.
Fun fact: the brothers are actually from The Woodlands, Tx, which is an upscale area about 30 minutes north of me. |
Inveigh
02.15.11 | lmao this one is better

GUY 1 The Grammies celebrate pop music and who does the best job making music that appeals on a mainstream level. Awarding an "indie" band doesn't give you street cred, Academy.

GUY 3 The Arcade Fire are an extremely talented band...

GUY 1 And I haven't checked these facts, but I'm willing to bet Lady Gaga made more money, played for more people, and received more exposure than them as a result of her album that was nominated. Pop music. Give credit where credit is due.

The comments go on for a lot longer than that but it's just more of the same so I won't post it all |

02.15.11 | I wish people would realize that more popular doesn't equal better. I had that argument about Deftones once with a guy I know that's a fanboy big time.
He didn't like it, but I basically won the argument. |
Inveigh
02.15.11 | it's just so funny that these people seemingly care so much about the Grammys yet didn't take the time to even look at who was nominated before the show |
spillingmercury
02.15.11 | Funniest shit ever. I love this outrage.
Long live The Suburbs. |
Inveigh
02.15.11 | nah it's not infuriating, who really, I mean really, gives a shit about the grammys anyways? |

02.15.11 | @rabbit i saw some special on TV that was just them playing a concert i thought it was really good... then again they wouldnt play one of their shit concerts on TV, still hard to imagine they would be bad after seeing it. |
Captain Civic
02.15.11 | What is this I don't even
I'm only new to them, but holy crap ... the rage from all of these mainstream fed hillbilly rednecks at them is utterly incredible. You haven't heard them, but you've heard Gaga, so she's automatically better and more deserving of the award?! YOU AMERICANS |
Eko
02.15.11 | who is lady gaga she was like in an egg or sumthin |
vanderb0b
02.15.11 | Nah, you got it all wrong. The band is Bad Romance, "Lady Gaga" is the title of their hit single. |
Aids
02.15.11 | hahahahah wow, the grammys should have picked someone REALLY indie just to fuck with everyone. Seriously guys? You don't know Arcade Fire? |

If they play a song it'll take up the whole show.
I can't wait. |

02.15.11 | i saw way too many facebook statuses last night asking who "the suburbs" were. it really pissed me off. |

02.15.11 | after doing some listening on Arcade Fire's myspace all these people are probably all "Ohhhhhh why
didn't they just say 'the band from Where The Wild Things Are?'" |
brandnewAAAA
02.15.11 | They should've won that grammy 6 years ago, but if it get retarded people all raged then it's cool.
"What the fuck are the Arcade Fries"
"Dunno but they sound delicious" I lol'd |
Aids
02.15.11 | yah them winning for The Suburbs is pretty stupid when Funeral didn't even get nominated. but there's no use getting all pissed off about it, it's the grammys after all |
JWT155
02.15.11 | Musicians aren't recognized for their brilliance until years or even decades after their peak and finally when the critics man up to recognize them, they award them awards for records that are sub-par in comparison to their past work and step in the way of current artists at their peak who likewise will have to wait their turn to be recognized. |

02.15.11 | It's an accurate gauge on how retarded most people are when it comes to music and how they're spoon fed what's on top 40. |
KeithStone582
02.15.11 | When they announced acrcade fire won the faces of the members were like. "Really, people know us", so this link makes sense. |
TMobotron
02.15.11 | "this is much more infuriating than funny to me"
haha yeah it's funny to me, but it can't be put into words how fucked up it is that SOOO many people don't know who arcade fire is. I'm not even that big of a fan but how the fuck can you not have at least heard of the band that released Funeral? Can't agree more with...
"It's an accurate gauge on how retarded most people are when it comes to music and how they're spoon fed what's on top 40."
And it's just pathetic. |
Zanders
02.15.11 | It's actually pretty strange, I used to see Arcade Fire's name all over the place. I thought their last two albums climbed pretty high on the charts. |
