Arcade Fire: release early on iTunes
crablin by Colin Roberts January 24th, 2005

Despite having been available on import for months, the debut record for American theatrical messmeisters Arcade Fire will finally get a release in the UK on February 28th on Rough Trade. However, due to an unprecedented demand for copies, the album 'Funeral' will be available to download from Apple's iTunes service as of tomorrow (January 25th).

The record is now no longer going to be sold via import to UK customers, so the only option if you want to hear the record really soon is to get on iTunes. You probably should as well, because it's really quite good.

DiScuss: Have you heard 'Funeral' yet? What do you think?
