Win Butler Confirma Novo Álbum de Arcade Fire

Redacção

Segundo Win Butler, o sucessor de “Everything Now” está em desenvolvimento. Os Arcade Fire, aliás, foram forçados a interromper as sessões de estúdio devido ao surto epidémico.

Através de uma série de publicações nas redes sociais, Win Butler confirmou que os Arcade Fire estão a trabalhar num novo álbum. O músico refere que, ao lado da sua esposa e colega de banda, Régine Chassagne, tem «estado a escrever nos últimos dois anos» e que, na verdade, os Arcade Fire estavam já «há um par de meses a gravar novo material em estúdio», quando rebentou a crise coronavírus.

«Temos explorado muitos temas líricos e musicais que estão estranhamente relacionados com aquilo que está a acontecer (uma das canções que temos chama-se “Age Of Anxiety”, escrita um ano atrás. Não será necessário dizer que a composição se intensificou e o trabalho está a fluir… É tão desafiante como sempre e com o mesmo propósito», assume Butler garantindo que a banda está absolutamente comprometida e imersa no álbum que virá a suceder a “Everything Now”, de 2017.

Sem poder avançar cenários, devido a todas as incertezas em que se vive actualmente, Butler afirmou ainda a possibilidade dos Arcade Fire demonstrarem algum do material em live stream, ainda que tenha avisado que as novas músicas não sejam iminentes.

Post 1/3 April 13,2020 To the wonderful fans of @arcadefire ,

First of all, I’m sorry if at any time, I have taken for granted the incredible privilege it has been to perform for you and have you engage and listen to our music.

On the eve of my 40th birthday, I find myself reflecting on my last big birthday; turning 30 (both excellent times to reflect). We were in Austin completing vocals and finishing touches on “The Suburbs”. Will, Spike and I had been intensely working on the script that would become “Scenes from the Suburbs.” Trying to finish a record that was so intensely personal was overwhelming. I didn’t even have the energy to celebrate, but we still went to a little Tex Mex place (definitely my death row cuisine of choice😊) I remember sitting in the fake leather booth, barely able to speak because of mental exhaustion, my true friends scattered all over the world and no where in sight, and thinking “It feels pretty great to be here at 30.” I was doing challenging work, with amazing band mates, making music I felt inspired by and driven to complete.

I’m happy to report that at 40, I’m still pretty much in the same zone!!

Post 3/3 @arcadefire For my part, I’m pouring my heart, soul and all of my precious time into the music and recording. (Not closing the door on doing some online performances, but it feels like many artists have that covered;) But talk to me in August when we are all climbing the walls…consider that a song request Radiohead 😊 ) 
When you listen to the music that’s coming (…eventually…not soon…if you don’t have patience by now, you definitely aren’t reading this), you will know what we were working on under quarantine.

Sending love and light! Take care of yourselves, friends, family and neighborhood. 
With unending love and respect,

Your pal, Win P.S. my fucking hands hurt, don’t remember how I used to do this
