Arcade Fire

In August 2014, Arcade Fire was riding high on the success of their album "Reflektor," which had been released the previous year. This live performance at The Gorge Amphitheatre showcases their vibrant and theatrical style, reflective of the ambitious spirit found in "Reflektor." Notably, the album marked a significant departure into dance and Caribbean influences, a fresh twist that resonated well with audiences. It’s fascinating to see how the band's signature sound melds with the energy of a live crowd, creating a palpable atmosphere. The performance of "Flashbulb Eyes" amplifies this vibe, illustrating not only their growth but also their ability to engage and energize fans in a stunning outdoor setting. Moreover, the concert was part of a larger tour that emphasized communal experience and inclusivity, foundational themes in the band's philosophy.
