I thought hipsters stopped listening to Arcade Fire after their first EP.

I believe FC is a westmoreland county guy. I doubt he's ever actually encountered a hipster.

My first encounter with hipsters was at a Modest Mouse concert in the early 2000s.

I don't think I missed anything after listening to the above. However, I did miss something after listening to that Taste track over in random songs.

This is kind of funny. It's Gish, Mellon Collie and Siamese Dream (3,2,1), and then just chronoligically ranked to current. Each new album progressively worse than the prior one.
