Jul 28, 2017good record but not as good as expected from AF. This one is clearly far behind the others albums from the band. Everything now, Creatures confort, infinite content, put your money on me and we don't deserve love are really goods but it's not enough to make a great record. I think AF loose their selves by doing this album in different places with different people, they lost the magic of AF.

Aug 8, 2017A shift in their style that, in fact, isn't that bad. A really good ending ("Put Your Money on Me", "We Don't Deserve Love") that contrasts with some ugly fillers like "Chemistry" and "Infinite_Content".
Nevertheless, the geniality can be tasted; it's Arcade Fire, like it or not. Let's see where they're heading to. -
Aug 18, 2017The first album of Arcade Fire that really is empty, irrelevant and some lyrics worthy of Rebecca Black, far left the supergroup that showed us unique melodies.

Jul 28, 2017The album fails to deliver interesting new sound with its spicy take, some influences from less mainstream genres like Ska couldnt make this album sound special. Creature Comfort is a balls to the walls statement about modern culture with amazing sound, the album shouldve kept that level of fun, instead we got just a very dull synth-pop experience.

Aug 1, 2017Just when you thought Arcade Fire were incapable of a bad release,,,They Have! When the best 3 songs on an album are reprises on the title track you know your in trouble,,,,,,,you keep waiting for those soaring anthemic masterpieces to come but they never do,,,,instead the album dies a steady and painful death until the end of its 47 minutes.

Jan 29, 2018A disappointment. I expected much more out of Arcade Fire, and they did not deliver.

Aug 2, 2017It's not the worst album ever and I'm sure if it wasn't Arcade Fire i would have enjoyed it more, but since they are a seasoned band it is fair to hold them up to that standard. It was a dull album which lacked soul and interest.

Jul 30, 2017What the hell happened to this record? This is the extreme opposite of what an Arcade Fire should sound like and mean as a whole. Insubstantial lyrics, lame production, terrible vocal delivery, an old-fashioned theme and a supreme lack of passion make Everything Now not only the band's worst album to date, but also the biggest disappointment of the year so far.

Jul 29, 2017Ahhh, I used to love this group. Then they decided that alternative rock wasn't interesting to them any more and that they needed to add a disco beat. I'm sure i'll get more out of the album in terms of lyrics if i listen to it a bunch more times. But i can't seem to care enough to try.

Jul 28, 2017''Everything Now'' It's just an average album. Some songs like ''Everything Now'' and ''Creature Comfort'' are too much repetitive. The tracklist is too short and lacks leading tracks or very strong ones.
I used to be an Arcade Fire fan and i'm so disappointed. -

Aug 18, 2021Where did the glue that held Reflektor together go?
I remember I jammed out to Everything Now when I first had access to Spotify and now it doesn't sound like what it once was. If Arcade Fire were to take out the middle of the album then the chances of higher scores would be more likely.

Aug 17, 2017While not entirely lacking new ideas (the louche, second version of Infinite Content would make Wilco proud), Everything Now feels like a brainstorming idea with one too many executives in the boardroom.

MagnetAug 15, 2017Arcade Fire's tightest and tersest album since 2004's Funeral is by far its least ambitious, and the band is cool to riff on this. [No. 145, p.53]

Aug 4, 2017The only thing Arcade Fire’s Everything Now is about is Arcade Fire, which is its most pernicious and pathetic quality. Arcade Fire are no longer Orpheus and Eurydice, lovers doomed to tragedy; now they are Narcissus, the Greek hunter who lost the will to live after staring at his own reflection in a pond for too long. They ask their listeners to participate in this cynicism as they grasp so falsely at explanations for why “we” are like this.
