I'm finding it to be vastly overrated. What am I missing?

Not sure. They've been indie media darlings from the likes of Spin and Pitchfork for years, and are still receiving high praise, for whatever reason. I was late to the game on their first 2 albums, though I liked them just fine at the time. They have some really solid songs, I'll admit. Maybe it's just me, but their music doesn't age well, and I haven't listened to any Arcade Fire for a couple of years now. I think I'm through with them.
