But it also made a heavy impact on fans and     to the surprise of many     won Album of the Year at the 2011 Grammy Awards. This immensely visceral album triggers a sincere celebration of not formative years spent in a cookie-cutter development, but of feeling self-important, immortal, and desperate to escape. It examines youth and amplifies an innate sense of longing and remembrance.\u003cbr\u003eEric Eidelstein  's \u003ci\u003eThe Suburbs\u003c\/i\u003e explores this weird, utopic recollection of youth by comparing the album to suburban scenes in film and television, such as \u003ci\u003eBlue Velvet\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eMad Men\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eThe Americans,\u003c\/i\u003e and Spike Jonze  's \u003ci\u003eScenes from the Suburbs\u003c\/i\u003e. Through the close examination of film and televised depictions of the suburbs, both past and present, Eidelstein delves into the societal factors and artistic depictions that make the suburbs such a fascinating cultural construct, and uncovers why the album creates such a relatable and universal sense of reminiscence.","brand":"Ships in 10 to 15 days","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46619408105630,"sku":"UBD-9781501336461","price":19.78,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0400\/9043\/5742\/files\/9781501336461.jpg?v=1773898699","url":"https:\/\/classicbargains.com.au\/products\/9781501336461","provider":"Classic Bargains Australia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
