Got this today. Not a bad listen but not sure if it's as good as the first album. I'll probably listen to it a few more times before i decide which one is better  |

Tighter musically than the first album, singings improved as well. Loses something in that though.

they were good until they releasesed there first single and everyone jumped on the bandwagon. Somehow destroyed something that felt so fresh... shame.

I don't like you any more 'cos everyone else does. Gaaaaay. Yeah maybe so... but hearing a song every five minutes on the radio that you onced loved can soon make you despise it after a thousand times... bottom line though, theres far more to music than the artic monkeys... they dont even scratch the surface |

Actually scrap that, i'm entitled to my opinion. I once liked them, saw them three times. They released their first single, the recording and production wasn't as good as their early demos. I was dissapointed with this, and that was that. bothered. who cares.

I quite liked the Arctic Monkeys. Got a bit sick of them though, but then I never thought they were amazing.
Might give the new album a listen sometime and see if they change my mind a bit.

To be honest I made up my little mini-review having not listened to the second album ever and not listened to the first album for a year-ish. I was just wondering if I could blag someone to agree with me. To far gone up a thread which seems to have lost direction now.
Never been that bothered about the arctic monkeys myself. First album was good and I listened to it a fair bit for a few months but to be honest it wasn't worth all the bumery which went with it.
