Arcade Fire has received an Oscar nomination for its themes in the Spike Jonze film «Here«.
Without a doubt, this music has been one of the favorites for the Academy Award throughout the awards season as evidenced by its accolades in critical associations such as those of San Diego, Austin, St. Louis o Chicago.
But his candidacy was on the air after being left out of the Golden Globes nominations, although finally the academics remembered it and not the winner of the Foreign Press Association Awards which was «All is lost«.
Arcade Fire, a group that has composed these songs, is a Canadian baroque pop band, to date they have released four albums and have won awards such as a Grammy for best album of the year, with "The Suburbs" and two Brit Awards, to best foreign album and best international group, for the same work in 2010.
Now, to these awards, the Canadian group could add a new award, the Oscar for best original soundtrack, for this it will have to prevail on March 2 against great composers with a long career in the Academy Awards such as John Williams by "The Book Thief", Alexandre Desplat by "Philomena»Or Thomas Newman by "Saving Mr. Banks»And also the newcomer, and perhaps a great favorite for the award this year Steven price by "Gravity«.
