Arctic Monkeys new album- AM

[Roobs321]

Despair in the Departure Lounge actually just summed up my emotions 2 hours ago lol.

I love all their albums. I think they have got better and better, but I still loved and smashed the hell out of Debut and FWN back on release. Humbug was more of a grower, and SIAS is their best to date (although that's because of great consistent flow, might lack standouts from earlier albums).

They legitimately have only released A-grade albums to date, yet to deliver a stinker or bland effort. Hopefully AM continues in that trend.

anyone heard "why'd you only call me when you're high"? just another confirmation that the new album is gonna be awesome

I can't find a stream now. Admittedly I just got back from WA and can't be bothered scouring the internet, so if someone could help...

Now, which one of you pricks runs Weekend at Ding Dong and made this Friday Arctics night? They're doing Whatever People Say I Am. Corrrr

Off the plane and straight on to the piss, ay SA.

This is better than the video if you want to hear the song properly (the vid mashes the song up a bit and appears to skip parts).

 

[Silent Alarm]

Cool song, better subject matter. Is everyone Alex Turner?

 

[Upgrayedd]

Really keen on this, loving what they've released so far/.

 

[Aldo]

It's leaked. No clue where to find it though. Only heard a couple of songs that have been posted.

 

[treefingers]

Listening now!

 

[NarniMagic]

Arabella is brilliant. Still undecided on what I think of the album as a whole, I'll give it time to grow though because it took quite a while for "Suck it and See" to click.

 

[Aldo]

I was a little underwhelmed by the 30second previews, but after hearing the songs in full and wow. It's definitely my favourite album from them right now. Has the consistency across the board of WPSIATWIN but is more musically interesting. Some of the lyrics don't flow as well as I'd like but overall it is so good.

 

[treefingers]

Agree that I need to give it more listens, Why'd You Only Call Me When You're High? is my favourite so far but that'll probably change every time I listen to it.

 

[NarniMagic]

I think my favorite so far (after 3/4 listens) is "I Wanna Be Yours". Good album, could be great after it grows (which it feels like it will)

 

[treefingers]

This is a grower, I think it's great. I'm on about 10-11 listens but haven't listened to closely to individual songs, can't wait to look at the lyrics and check out the Alex Turner brilliance...

 

[Prince St]

Got my hands on a leak, listened a few times now. Whole lot more Roll and I like it.

 

[Warsaw]

Love it.

They've worked it out.

 

[Thistle]

Grabbed my copy today and after a few listens through I'm really liking it, it's definitely going to be a grower though. Amazing how the band can find a different sound each album.

 

[Roobs321]

Another grower and redirection by the sounds of it, looking forward to dozens more listens

 

[ManWithNoName]

First listen right now. Only a song and a half in and wow. At what point do they start contending for best band of the 2000's? Their track record is unmatched by any band in a long, long time.

 

[Roobs321]

2nd listen through, I love it!

 

[treefingers]

I haven't changed itunes since I first got it, about 28 listens it already... yeah it's good.

 

[Prog Rocker]

Got AM today..totally blown Away...They can't put a foot wrong!

 

[Fart Cummings]

so good! so so good

 

[Hand]

Possibly too good.

As good as their first album? No. Nothing is.
