NME.com Streams New Arcade Fire LP All Week

Arcade Fire’s Neon Bible won’t be released in the US until March 6th, 2007, but anxious music fans can satisfy their thirst for the Montreal-based band’s highly-anticipated sophomore LP all this week via NME.com.

The website of the legendary British weekly music mag will be streaming the album in its entirety beginning February 26th, available until the record hits UK shelves on March 5th.

Neon Bible follows up Arcade Fire’s 2004 debut Funeral, which pleasantly stunned critics and fans alike. The band recently appeared on Saturday Night Live, performing two tracks from the upcoming album (“Intervention” and “Keep the Car Running”) and appearing in an digital short with the cast and the evening’s host, Rainn Wilson.

Check back next week for Paste’s full review of Neon Bible, also featured in our March issue (on newsstands now)!
