Arctic Monkeys

Whatever People Say I Am, That's What I'm Not is great. "Fake Tales of San Francisco" is absolutely fun and always puts me in a cheerful mood—as does the rest of the album.

I wish I could say the same for Favourite Worst Nightmare. I found it both underwhelming and disappointing.

My thoughts exactly.

My dads big on jazz and avant garde jazz and everything and for a while this was one of his favorite bands, and he was always playing it in the car. I love it too, their must be something really good about but i just can't put my finger on it

FWN was a nice little change of pace. While it might not have been as great as "Whatever...," they changed their sound up a bit and didn't put out a simple rehash of their debut, which you have to respect. Plus, Do Me a Favour is the shizz.

Yes, yes it is. Possibly my favorite on the album though "Brainstorm" seems to be my most played.

Is that in Croatia or are you travelling to see them? I would like to see them live myself.
