Woz Posted April 27, 2007 Posted April 27, 2007 So What does Everyone think of the new Arctic Monkeys album? I think it's class to be honest, improves on the first album ever so slightly. Best track is Balaclava, it's just so bloody fast! Opinions?
AshMat Posted April 27, 2007 Posted April 27, 2007 Awesome thread, the album pwns. Fucking lvoe it. Even more looking forard to seing em now..
Slaggis Posted April 27, 2007 Posted April 27, 2007 I think their over-rated (waits with bated breath to be punched in the mouth). The again i cant really have any opinion til'' I hear the all of the album
Woz Posted April 28, 2007 Author Posted April 28, 2007 *Holds back punching haggis in the mouth..... then sees 'Avril Lavigne awesome album'..... goes mental* Nah she isn't too bad is are Avril, but I can't beleive that there isn't many arctic monkeys fans on these pages. To get things going, a line from 'this house is a circus': (possibly the greatest lyrics ever!) "This house is a circus, beserk as fuck. We tend to see that as a perk though. Look.... " And Flourescent adolescent (sp?): " That boys a slag, the best you ever had". Have I converted anyone yet? Also as I am really bored, has anyone heard the japanese bonus track 'da frame 2r'? Crap name like but great tune.... opening lyrics: "007 and brucie wayne, are shitting them 'sens 'cause there's another name...." What more can be said, they are pure genius.
ipaul Posted April 28, 2007 Posted April 28, 2007 I have not listend to much of the Arctic Monkeys but from what I have they are nothing special. Their latest single sounds too.....familiar. I haven't given the whole album a listen but I don't think I'd like it too much, seems like the kind of album where I'd like the songs on the first listen and soon get sick of them. I prefer slow burning songs.
Shorty Posted April 28, 2007 Posted April 28, 2007 I was never that big on this band, didn't understand the fuss. Felt like a young Libertines going out of their way to sound a little rough around the edges. Loud strumming, high treble and chant-singing with banging around on a stage - they've got nothing to set them apart from the crowd and despite my love of their hometown, I've just got bored of it all lately.
harribo Posted April 28, 2007 Posted April 28, 2007 Love them love the new album. Don't know whether or not its better or worse than the first.
Dan_Dare Posted April 28, 2007 Posted April 28, 2007 not really a fan. I put that down to my vastly changed taste over the last year more than anything though. I've moved on to more interesting things.
