The new ranking combines a 2003 list (updated in 2005) with a later survey of the 2000s. Funeral, which was released in 2004, is among 30 additions, including Jay-Z for The Black Album, the late Amy Winehouse for Back to Black, and two Radiohead records. Funeral is the only Canadian album to be added. Released in 2004, Arcade Fire’s debut full-length album threw the indie-rock world for an emotionally loaded loop. From Pitchfork to Paste to Amazon.com, critics sang its praises. “Funeral takes the listener on an emotional ride that can’t be found anywhere else,” enthused associatedcontent.com, which put Funeral at the top of its 20 best albums of the 2000s. [np-related] “There’s so much power in what’s going on throughout the record, that a first-time listener doesn’t know what to think at the end. All he knows is that his mind is blown and that he’s never heard anything like this. And we may never get another album like this again.” The band has credited the album’s sound to grief. Arcade Fire — formed in 2003 in Montreal by the future husband-and-wife duo of Win Butler and Regine Chassagne, along with Win’s brother William Butler, Richard Reed Parry and Tim Kingsbury — titled their first full-length effort in reference to the deaths of several relatives of band members during its recording. The resulting dark mood influenced songs such as Une annee sans lumiere (A Year Without Light) and Haiti, Chassagne’s elegy to her lost homeland.

Asked whether the relatively low position of recently released albums reflected a barren period for great rock and pop, Christian Hoard, a senior editor at Rolling Stone, says no. As with any survey that tries to put the greatest rock ‘n’ roll recordings into a particular order, there was plenty of heated debate among the journalists and editors who came up with the final list. “We had arguments in the office, and I hope those arguments are replicated elsewhere,” Hoard said. The big beneficiary on the list was U.S. hip-hop star West, who saw three albums make it to the Top 500. To make way for the 30 additions, 30 others were taken away. Among those dropping out to make way were The Beach Boys (Sunflower), David Bowie (Changesone), Elton John (Elton John) and Madonna (Music). The first change to the previous list comes at No. 59, leaving the Beatles to dominate the Top 10. Rolling Stone has published the list, along with details of the albums and several new recording histories based on first-hand accounts, in “bookazine” format available for $11.99 on newsstands between Friday and July 25 in the U.S. Notice for the Postmedia Network This website uses cookies to personalize your content (including ads), and allows us to analyze our traffic.

Are Arcade Fire any good?Their new album, WE, feels like a calculated retrenchment, a heaping pile of everything you want from Arcade Fire: touchy-feely rock tunes, inspired sequencing, and melodramatic, inspirational lyrics, just like Funeral.

What was The Rolling Stones last number 1 hit?More than 40 years since their last number one hit on the Billboard Hot 100 Singles Chart, The Rolling Stones have landed at number one on iTunes. Yesterday, the band dropped “Living in a Ghost Town,” a surprise new song and accompanying video. Who was on the first cover of Rolling Stone in 1967?The first issue was released on November 9, 1967, and featured John Lennon in costume for the film How I Won the War on the cover.
