Here’s a trend that’s going to get old fast. Arcade Fire have posted a cryptic message on their official Website telling fans to be online on October 6, presumably for a big surprise. What will it be? They’re releasing a new CD in ten days and it will be available in stores for $14.99? They’re adding a fourteenth band member? They, too, have made an album of songs inspired by the upcoming film American Gangster? Actually, we’d kind of like to hear that.
