From Grief to Greatness: this is a history of Arcade Fire's album 'Funeral' and how it changed indie rock. Funeral was released in September 2004, birthed from the collective grief of the band after losing many family members. Finding joy in the sorrow, the album resonated with many across the United States and the world in the post-9/11 days, still fresh from a few years prior. 👉 Subscribe for Weekly Music History Videos: https://youtube.com/c/AndyFenstermaker/?sub_confirmation=1 👉 More Poetic Wax Podcast Episodes https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLylroYWVYWWVTw1c5G-D2doEVIjlLLEV3 WATCH NEXT: ✓ How The Decemberists Made History Cool: https://youtu.be/MAd8dJuvNF4 ✓ Modest Mouse & The Story of Float On: https://youtu.be/33Ybj5zRg2U ✓ Blonde Redhead & Misery Is A Butterfly: https://youtu.be/3M1E_wsYyHQ ✓ Down With Wilco: https://youtu.be/OIeV2c5qwbQ GET THE GOODS: 🔥 Funeral on Vinyl: https://amzn.to/4eI7Tnl 🔥 More Arcade Fire on Vinyl: https://amzn.to/4eHiCyE 🤷♂️ I earn from qualified Amazon purchases.
