Video of the Week: The Arcade Fire "Neighborhood #3 (Power Out)"

I'm a sucker for quirky animation, so the new video from one of the past year's best new acts, The Arcade Fire, is right up my alley. The video (available here) is from the Toronto-based company, Plates Animation. You may have seent their work previously with Mogwai's "Hunted by a Freak" or The Shins "So Says I", both of which are also available for viewing on the site. I was a big fan of the Mogwai video when it came out a few years ago, but this was the first time I had seen The Shins video. Hopefully this is just the beginning of things to come from both The Arcade Fire and Plates Animation.

UPDATE (4/29): Well, it appears the Arcade Fire video was taken down and is now listed as 'Coming Soon'. Not sure why they did this, but hopefully it will be back up soon.
