Arcade Fire have just released the video for their newest single 'The Suburbs', off their highly acclaimed, eponymously titled album. The video, directed by Spike Jonze, was shot on location around the suburbs of Austin, Texas. While Arcade Fire are based in Montreal, several members of the band grew up in the suburban sprawl of Houston, and The Suburbs is a tribute to what it was like to grow up there, feeling different and purposeless in a landscape of cavernous malls and blinding street lights. The newest video, in true Spike Jonze style, is beautifully directed, and brilliantly captures the feeling of The Suburbs and all the frustrated emotions of being young. The video features a gang of teenagers roaming the streets on BMX bikes, making out and annoying people with pellet guns on bridges. True to form, the quiet and sleepy suburbs are not always what they seem, and when darkness descends things begin to fall apart. Take a look for yourself.
