Led by husband-and-wife songwriting team Win Butler and Régine Chassagne, Montreal collective The Arcade Fire has quickly become one of 2005's most talked-about artists. Their debut album, Funeral, is a somber yet ultimately hopeful meditation on grief and the transience of life inspired by the deaths of Chassagne's grandmother, Butler's grandfather and bandmate Richard Parry's aunt. Appropriately for such intensely personal material, the band traveled to Butler's small Maine hometown to shoot the album's first video, "Rebellion (Lies)." The beautifully evocative autumn weather, along with locations that include the graveyard where five generations of Butler's family are buried, help create an ideal visual counterpoint to the band's haunting take on mortality.
