9 July, 2016: Arcade Fire make their glorious live return with an epic and immaculate headline set at Nos Alive 2016. Check out our beautiful photos from the show here and see the setlist below.
"I think white men have run the world for a while, I think it's time women and people of colour tried for 100 years or so," spits frontman Will Butler in his only but perfect utterance during tonight's set.
