Yeah I would have totally loved that performance if it was happening while I watched, but since it happened a bit earlier it is RUBBISH.

^^

 

have you noticed how people respect you when you talk sense and hate you when you talk rubbish.

 

can you tell me where i've talked rubbish in the last two posts ?

i've just said that it wasn't a live stream,and this is RUBBISH.

y'all are too sensitive

Well Crying Lightning is the standout, but I'd say Pretty Visitors is solid and the same with Fire and The Thud, My Propeller is good too.

just to put the issue to rest. the only person who ever claimed the webcast was a "live gig" was TGE ( i would of said the same thing) the arctic monkeys only said that it was a "web transmission". live music doesnt have to be in real time.

double post.

 

i really like this album cos its not a blatant effort to break america, its just smart rock with some excellent pop songs thrown in.

Exactly it was a live recording.

 

I love this album, I'm having to force myself not to listen to it so I don't overdo it

 

I hear something new I like every time I listen

The album is amazing. I'm trying to do the same as Nathan, and not overdo it, but I'm listening to it this very second, so I'm not doing a very good job!

 

All tracks have got better, everytime I listen. To start with, I really wasn't a fan of "The Jeweller's Hands", but now, it's possibly my favourite track. "Pretty Visitors" is a raaaaaaawkin track. "Secret Door" is amazing as well.

 

So, to sum up, GOOOOOOOOOD!

i have so much money on itunes gift cards, i will not download this early...but the wait is gettn hard cause it sounds like its a good and different album from them.

I love The Jeweller's Hands, Dance Little Liar, and Pretty Visitors. Oh and of course Crying Lightning.

Love it!

Humbug in one word. Subtle.

I like that description. At the moment I'm disappointed by it, but apparently it gets better the more you listen.

listening now.

i was actually sorta disappointed with "favourite worst nightmare," so im hoping this ones shitloads better.

crying lightning is fantastic though.

FWN wasn't as good as WPSIATWIN but I still think it's absolutely brilliant. How can you not like Teddy Picker, Fluorescent Adolescent, 505, and Do me a Favour? The album has a lot of good tracks. It got some great reviews too.

Yeah, and early reviews for humbug are tentatively average...

But I suppose when a band deviates from their 'normal' sound they get mixed reviews

fluorescent adolescent, do me a favour and brianstorm are some of my favorite arctic monkeys songs ever. but i just love the entire feel of WPSIATWIN. i love every single song on that album.

Same, only mediocre song is Riot Van.

exactly:lol:

and even that song grew on me a little.

As if, I loved that one. Brianstorm was my worst, which may sound odd

(From both albums)

The vocals are so awesome. "so kind of you to bless us with your effortlessness, we're grateful and so strangely comforted."

alex's vocals make the arctic monkeys. imo.

plus, brianstorm just makes you want to dance:nice:

and who doesnt like yelling "BRIAAAAN.. TOP MARKS FOR NOT TRYING!"?

I'll give you that ONE line. I knew I would get into trouble, but I just dont find that song as good as others!

that got me in the mood for brianstorm, and i realized that all the lyrics in that song are fucking fantastic. or at least the way he says them:lol:

 

Brian,

Top marks for not tryin'

So kind of you to bless us with your effortlessness

We're grateful and so strangely comforted

 

And I wonder are you puttin' us under

Cause we can't take our eyes off the t-shirt and ties combination

Well see you later, innovator

 

Some want to kiss some want to kick you

There's not a net you couldn't slip through

Or at least that's the impression I get cause you're smooth and you're wet

And she's not aware yet but she's yours

 

She'll be sayin' use me

Show me the jacuzzi

I imagine that it's there on a plate

Your rendezvous rate means that you'll never be frightened to make them wait for a while

I doubt it's your style not to get what you set out to acquire

The eyes are on fire

You are the unforecasted storm

(Brian)

Calm, collected, and commandin'

(Top marks for not tryin')

You made the other stories standin'

With your renditions and jokes

Bet there's hundreds of blokes that have wept cause you've stolen their ...thunder

Are you puttin' us under

 

Cause we can't take our eyes off the t-shirt and ties combination

Well see you later, ïnnovator

His vocals are very distinct and insanely awesome, but they don't make Arctic Monkeys. The instrumentals are just too damn good for the band's success to be attributed to Alex's vocals alone.
