Soundtrack to the Secular Age

Hey Everyone,

I thought that I'd post some links to the music mentioned in our secondary Smith text so that you can get a feel for what the author is talking about!

Arcade Fire:

                                          The Suburbs, The Suburbs (2010)

                                          (note: There is some violence towards the end of 

                                            music video. As an additional note, the music video

                                            was directed by Academy Award winner Spike

                                            Jonze)

                                          Ready to Start, The Suburbs (2010)

                                          We Used to Wait, The Suburbs (2010)

Death Cab for Cutie:

                                          I Will Follow You Into the Dark, Plans (2005)

                                          Soul Meets Body, Plans (2005)

The Postal Service:

                                          Such Great Heights, Give Up (2003)

Fleet Foxes:

                                          White Winter Hymnal, Fleet Foxes (2008)

Garden State (Bonus*): 

                                          Trailer, Garden State (2004)

                                         "The Idea of Home is Gone," Garden State (2004)

                                         (note: The scene itself contains some language and 

                                          crude humor.)

*Because it was name-dropped in the Smith text on pg. 1
