ReflektorThe Reflektor Artwork portrays 2 naked human beings, with the man covering his face and his woman. I might say this was a reflection of the band's married couple, Win and Regine, like their first track Reflektor, the couple are the main vocals of their track saying that they see each other in their own reflection. Reflektor will be released on October 29, 2013.

The Reflektor Album has 13 tracks all in all, separated in two discs that comes with an intro of Reflektor and outro of Supersymmetry. 

The Arcade Fire - Reflektor Tracklist:
Disc 1
1. Reflektor
2. We Exist
3. Flashbulb Eyes
4. Here Comes the Night Time
5. Normal Person
6. You Already Know
7. Joan of Arc

Disc 2
1. Here Comes the Night Time II
2. Awful Sound (Oh Erydice)
3. It’s Never Over (Oh Orpheus)
4. Porno
5. Afterlife
6. Supersymmetry

Their first track, Reflektor, named after their album was good to set out the edge for their introduction. The track was 7-minute long, a perfect conditioning of audience to play the next track of the album.
