The Arcade Fire on Conan!

Wow, I had no idea that they were from Montreal. What a cool band! Has anyone seen them live?

Two crazy drummers use each other's heads to get their unique percussive sounds. Fortunately, they do put on motorcycle helmuts first. The accordionist was amazing in her gothy-school girl kinda way and she was there to save the song when the lead singer's voice started to give out. Poor guy. I think it was their television debut.

Does anybody know what song they were singing? There webpage is interesting to look at but not very informative.

What a cool band! .

I think the Snowy key of "meh" is very different from the Chalky variety

I hope you're not wearing black, Sloshy. There's chalk dust everywhere! Achooo! My meh sounds a little contrived since I don't have a clue what meh means!

David Byrne joined them on stage at their show at The Bowery in NYC:

These guys are getting so much indie cred it's frightening. I'm sure that it is becasue of them that Spin magazine named Montreal as the next "big" indie music scene, a la Seattle.
