Arcade Fire - EP

Arcade Fire is the debut extended play (EP) by the indie rock band Arcade Fire. The EP was recorded in Maine, United States, during the summer of 2002. Arcade Fire was remastered and repackaged for its 2005 re-release by Merge Records for fans after they had "grown obsessed" with the band's debut album, Funeral. It was initially released on June 15, 2003 by the band at their shows and website, and then re-released in 2005 by Merge. Lyrically, the album tackles themes such as parents, suburbia, new love, dread, and drama. Upon its release, it received positive reviews from music critics, although some of them noted that it was inferior to their debut album, Funeral. The EP's third track, "No Cars Go", was re-recorded for Arcade Fire's second full-length album, Neon Bible. "No Cars Go" has been played at the majority of live shows since the EP release. Arcade Fire have also played other songs from the EP live on every tour since; however, it has become less frequent. On their recent tours, they notably played "Headlights Look Like Diamonds" and "Vampire/Forest Fire".
