Probably more of that Strokes influence.

Damn it I missed the web show. Damn you different time zones!

Yeah, I don't know. It's not as bad as I thought it would be and they've certainly created enough good will with the first two albums for me to stick with this one and give it multiple listens before I make a final judgment. The drumming is top notch as always though. :\

I will eat humble pie and say that I have been pleasently surprised with the album. I think it may even lose them some fans but hey shit happens. It's better than FWN by a long chalk.

Bullshit.

We all have are own opinions.

Arctic Monkeys are one of the few acts that are currently going on that I can even stand to listen to. Their latest album is pretty good, but nothing beats my old favorite: Fluorescent Adolescence. Also, Mardy Bum.

I think the new album, is definitely better than FWN and is as good as Whatever People Say I Am.. if not better.

Cornerstone and Fire And The THud are the stand out tracks for me.

I like how he isn't bothered about America and how well they do over there, it's brilliant to see, usually bands want to make it big over there and that's the ultimate goal but they are a British band making British music for British people.

Okay I'm just going to come out and say that I like the new album better than FWN. Before listening I was completely skeptical because I am definitely not a Josh Homme fan. But in Humbug it seems as though they have kind-of shed that immaturity that was in their previous records. It seems a lot darker and ballsier, I don't know, but I really like it. Crying Lightning is definitely a grower, too.

I like it better than FWN, I haven't heard it yet but that's one better than FWN already
