Matty 0 Posted April 10, 2007 Share Posted April 10, 2007 Matty bristling at the suggestion that the Arctic Monkeys are shite (they are btw. ) Not at all, I just like how the lad thinks all the up and coming bands play in his front room before anywhere else!

Matty 0 Posted April 11, 2007 Share Posted April 11, 2007 Not long my friend! The first 2 gigs have been around 1 hour 15 mins /1 hour and 25 mins long so it should be well good! And a nice mix between first and second album. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happy Face 29 Posted April 12, 2007 Share Posted April 12, 2007 Gave the album it's full first listen this morning, nothing as good as dancefloor....as was the case on the last one. Can't imagine I'll have it on heavy rotation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't imagine I'll have it on heavy rotation. Dancefloor is one of the weakest tracks on the 1st album tbh. The band themselves say they don't rate it anymore and were slightly embarrassed the amount of publicity it got. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All the rest sounds the same as all the others like The Libertines, The View etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

geordieshandy 0 Posted April 16, 2007 Share Posted April 16, 2007 Any idea who's supporting tonight? Found out now. The Little Flames AND Gas Club. Perhaps Patrokles could inform me as to whether these are any good or not? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ally 0 Posted April 16, 2007 Share Posted April 16, 2007 Little Flames are good. Mate of a mate is in them, seen them a few times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Fish 8986 Posted April 16, 2007 Share Posted April 16, 2007 listened to the album a few times and nothing really gets my willy warm. all a bit samey and not one stands out as a quality tune imo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
geordieshandy 0 Posted April 17, 2007 Share Posted April 17, 2007 Little Flames are good. Mate of a mate is in them, seen them a few times. Yes, yes they were. As were the Monkeys. Rather splendid all in all. I now have a very sore head. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matty 0 Posted April 18, 2007 Share Posted April 18, 2007 Absolutely fuckin' immense from start to finish. New tunes were spot on and the older ones, which seemed like they were played at 100mph, were as perfect as usual. Ended up very sweaty and fuckin' knackered but easily one of the best gigs I've been to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest stevieintoon Posted June 29, 2007 Share Posted June 29, 2007 Some idiot was on the radio the other day stating that the Arctic Monkey's latest album proves that they're the best band ever. What a complete load of shite, they're absolutely piss poor, even in this day and age. I feel like throwing the radio out of the window when they come on. Do you go along with this media hype that they're something special, or do you realise they're pure and complete shite? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ewerk 26269 Posted June 29, 2007 Share Posted June 29, 2007 I like that one song they did, pity they've rehashed the same thing in every other song they've made. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peasepud 59 Posted June 29, 2007 Share Posted June 29, 2007 I think they're canny, beter lyrics than most out these days and something a little different from the same old same old shite. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happy Face 29 Posted June 29, 2007 Share Posted June 29, 2007 Decent One great single. Some canny singles. Poor live performers judging by Glastonbury. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mowen 0 Posted June 29, 2007 Share Posted June 29, 2007 Good band I reckon. I'd rather have them topping the charts than another Take That/Westlife esque act. Decent lyricists as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
