In the second episode of Split Picks, Craig Wright, Sararosa Davies and Nick Miller discuss Arcade Fire’s somber sophomore release, 2007’s Neon Bible, and their 2013 sprawling double album, Reflektor.

Split Picks is the first podcast from the Split Tooth Podcast Network. In it, we choose two albums from different periods of a band’s career and dissect the songs, the artist’s body of work and why their music resonates with us individually. At the end we crown the album that reigns supreme.
