My ranking:

1. Neon Bible
2. Funeral
3. Reflektor
4. The Suburbs

That's not to say I dislike any of them; The Suburbs has plenty of great songs, including Sprawl II, which is the best song Arcade Fire has done, but it's also too long and has a part on the back half where it gets kind of boring.

I like plenty of their songs, but any time I try to listen to an entire Arcade Fire album I become horribly bored. Call me a Hun if you like.

I concur. I frequently have it on in the background while doing other things.

I actually liked The Suburbs the best. That was also the first one I listened to, though, so that might factor into it. They're all really good, though.

Neon Bible is their best album, and "Intervention" their best song.  Bemoaning the state of the world (not just the state of their hearts) over bombastic church organ is, I think, the fullest realization of their style and purpose.

I'd put Suburbs second (it grew on me slowly but strongly), Funeral third (good but overhyped, and the duds are pretty bad), and Reflektor fourth (just can't get into it at all, sorry).

I'd probably put them in the same order in which they were released.
