Arcade Fire

In August 2014, when Arcade Fire performed 'Neighborhood #1 (Tunnels)' live at The Gorge Amphitheatre, they were riding high on the wave of their critically acclaimed album 'Reflektor,' released in late 2013. This album marked a departure from their earlier work, diving into themes of love, loss, and the complexities of modern existence. It was notable not just for its eclectic mix of musical styles but also for its ambitious double-disc format. Interestingly, 'Reflektor' drew inspiration from Haitian culture and included collaboration with David Bowie, blending diverse influences in a way that resonates powerfully in live settings like The Gorge. The energy of this particular performance is electric, and watching it, you can't help but feel the intense connection between the band and their audience, which has become a hallmark of Arcade Fire's live shows.
