I'd like to say this is an undercover classic, but can we really consider this album to be "undercover" when it won a Grammy for Album of the Year? Commercial success (and appeal) aside, The Suburbs is a near perfect album - one that succeeds in carrying the theme of growing up in the suburbs across each song. It's an album that feels both new and nostalgic. An album that transports the listener to a simpler time when days felt long and summers short. A time when your bicycle was your vehicle for freedom. In a catalog of other great albums by Arcade Fire, The Suburbs stands at the top.
