An indie-ish rock band. To me it's one of the last great rock groups to be formed, considering the trend in music nowadays.
Their best album is their first one, which is also the fastest selling debut album ever (at least in England). Something about Alex Turner's voice and lyrics is just memorable. They're currently working on their new album.
My Top 5:
-I Bet You Look Good on the Dance Floor
-Fluorescent Adolescent
-Fake Tales of San Francisco
-Secret Door
-The View From the Afternoon
Also, if you liked this group, check out The Last Shadow Puppets, the lead singer's other project.
the singer reminds me of rivers cuomo for some reason
ReplyDeletecall me crazy, but i never really got into the arctic monkeys... i tried though

dude Arctic Monkeys is the shit man, and yeah I agree that the lead's vocals are somewhat... special. Fake Tales of San Francisco and Bet you good look on the dance floor are two of my favorites in my ipod, the only one I don't really like is Brianstorm... don't know why tho'
ReplyDeleteI like it, it's different.
ReplyDeleteBrianstorm was the first song I heard from these guys, and it's my favourite too :D
ReplyDeleteThanks for the post, I checked out your top 5. awesome songs!

ReplyDeletewow, looks very cool
ReplyDeleteCool stuff bro.
ReplyDeleteI normally automatically dislike new music, but this was actually pretty groovin!
ReplyDeleteI love, Arctic Monkeys, I think they're great, but I eel it's one of those bands that's best to listen to once in a while, and not repeatedly. Listening to them too much takes away from their raw feel.
ReplyDeleteProbably just me though.
looks like they have a lot of talent!
ReplyDeleteI hate indie rock, but they are really...enjoyable.
