Billions Australia & triple j presents

ARCADE FIRE ANNOUNCE FIRST EVER AUSTRALIAN HEADLINE SHOWS Billions Australia is pleased to settle all of the anxious speculation regarding whether or not the Arcade Fire, already announced as a main stage artist for the Big Day Out, would headline any while on Australian shores for the first time. The good news is YES!!
Such is the majesty and sheer magnificence of the Arcade Fire we are also certain that these highly-anticipated appearances at the Enmore in Sydney and the Forum in Melbourne will be unforgettable.
We also promise tickets will be on sale from next Wednesday 12th December but you'll need to get in very quickly because when it comes to critical acclaim and audience fever it's hard to match the Arcade Fire right now.
”Neither a timid repeat nor a knee-jerk departure, the bigger, bolder Neon Bible better captures what Arcade Fire achieve live: that sense of exhilarated careening born from the realization that cynicism's opposite isn't unremitting cheer, but stirring recognition and defiance”. – SPIN (US)
“The Canadian septet are the greatest art rock group since Talking Heads stopped making sense…Arcade Fire are that kind of band; dark and unpredictable, explosive and restrained”. – The Observer (UK)
“As a band who go to extraordinary lengths to convey their emotional maelstroms (onstage, every one of them screams and writhes as if possessed by the spirit of a thousand Conor Obersts; they beat drums, keyboards, guitars and each other's crash helmets with maniacal abandon and gigs usually end with a parade to a car park for a Clash cover or two), their second album 'Neon Bible' contains every ounce of the impassioned sound and fury of their live shows.” – NME (UK)
