Watch Arcade Fire Perform “Sprawl II” in Quarantine to Celebrate the 10th Anniversary of ‘The Suburbs’
Arcade Fire is celebrating the 10th anniversary of their third album, The Suburbs, with a new video for “Sprawl II (Mountains Beyond Mountains).”
Featuring Régine Chassagne and Win Butler performing the song on a backyard deck, the stripped-down performance of the fan-favourite from The Suburbs almost seems to be speaking to our current moment, with lines like “Living in the sprawl / Dead shopping malls rise like mountains beyond mountains / And there’s no end in sight.”
Released via the band’s Instagram, the video includes the following message: “The Suburbs is 10 years old now. Can’t wait to all play music together again. Until then, stay safe and well.”
Get your dancing shoes ready and check out the video below.
