And talking of making things available online, Arcade Fire are to release a download of a recent live performance with David Bowie. 'Wake Up', which the band performed with Bowie at the Fashion Rocks event in New York back in September, will be available via iTunes from 14 Nov. The track will only be available for one week, and proceeds will go to Hurricane Katrina relief charities.
On that performance, Win Butler told NME.com: "It was very special to have the opportunity because our record only came out less than a year or so ago at the time and we were remembering playing to about 20 people in a club. Then there we were playing with David Bowie. It just goes to show what an unbelievable year we've had."
