Okay, I know who they are but some people don't.

A blogger started this about the reception to Arcade Fire's grammy win. Quite funny. |

 . Thanks for that Harkan. How are Arcade Fire hipster? you really have to be ignorant about music to think that. I mean they got to number fucking 1 in the charts last year. I didn't realise how many people followed the grammys I guess, I just went on to youtube and searched Arcade Fire and every single video is flooded with arguments over why "Slim" shoulda won. Hilarious. I thought they were already pretty massive but I guess this could put them over the edge.
Oh and my favourite off that blog: the guy who corrects his friend and quite condescendingly:

Well I'm glad they didn't give it to Mr Mathers. All that violence in his songs and we are supposed to feel sorry for him? The message he seems to give to world is that hitting someone is one of the greatest signs of affection you can show. That it is ultimately the women who brings the violence on herself because he lover loves her so much.
Congratulations to Arcade Fire anyway. No matter what your opinion is on the Grammys, it must feel fantastic to have your debut album win the best album category.

The Suburbs is not their debut. It's their third album. Their debut, Funeral, was released in 2004. |

Some people might have missed it. |
