NME's 10 best albums of the noughties
7. ‘Funeral’ – Arcade Fire (2004)
The first full length album from the Canadian indie rockers found them plenty of positive attention from the critics and even a few high-profile fans such as David Bowie singing their praises (and later joining them on stage for their flawlessly cathartic tune ‘Wake Up’).
Again, the album title isn’t one to be trusted – the melancholy subject is sent to soaring highs by the virtuoso, swirling and life-affirming melodies.
