Note
  1. Certain award groups do not simply award one winner. They recognize several different recipients, have runners-up and have third place. Since this is a specific recognition and is different from losing an award, runner-up mentions are considered wins in this award tally. For simplification and to avoid errors, each award in this list has been presumed to have had a prior nomination.

The band's second album, Neon Bible, was released on March 5, 2007 to favourable reviews.[5] The album produced four singles: "Black Mirror" (2007), "Keep the Car Running" (2007), "Intervention" (2007), and "No Cars Go" (2007). Neon Bible was nominated at the 2008 Grammy Award for Best Alternative Music Album,[6] and it won the Juno Award for Alternative Album of the Year.[7] The album also sold 142,000 copies as of May 2008,[2][8] peaking at number one in Canada and number two in the United States.[4] Arcade Fire has received five awards from 21 nominations, including two Juno Awards from six nominations, one Meteor Music Awards from three nominations, and two PLUG Independent Music Awards from three nominations.
