Reflektor

Arcade Fire’s two-part musical adventure Reflektor is one of the choice albums of the year. With groovy guitar riffs and fast-paced drumbeats that keep your body moving, it doesn’t disappoint. The opening track, Reflektor, sets the tone for the masterpiece.

It is filled with intricate instrumentation and ornate lyricism that sets the foundation for tracks like Joan of Arc, It’s Never Over and Afterlife. The album is the group’s best yet.
