New Arctic Monkeys

We know there is more to life than the music of the Bunnymen. Talk about those other bands here.

Fuck me. The album is pretty fucking good.

So far standout tracks for me are

She's Thunderstorms
The Hellcat Spangled Shalalala
Love is a Laserquest

I hear some Morrissey in it so Billy this may be on your "avoid" list
With the Force as his ally he did battle with the Dark Lord. And he showed the measure of a true Jedi at a place called "The Death Star" where hope for the Galaxy was reborn. May all who struggle against tyranny hold his memory in their hearts

I was JUST listening to that song and thinking it was a pile of shit. Still the majority of the album has been officially declared as awesome (by me).

In a few months you will understand Brick, just like Hitler.

Applies to Human League, ABC, The Last Shadow Puppets, but not Jarvis Cocker.

Isn't this the format that is taken by middle-aged UK blokes when discussing new bands' music? Seems like any band formed after 1985 is all "derivative wank" to them:

Apparently you've never heard them go on about Mew or you would never had written that highly offensive post.

That's me--always ticking everyone off with my naivete and offensiveness, and my third grade education level.

BTW anyone says shit about Pulp or Jarvis Cocker and they'll have to answer to me. Daddy don't play when it comes to Jarvis.

What bollocks, I've never heard such an offensive generalisation in my entire life, my entire life mind.
