some of it is kinda boring, but they're just kids n' all.
i like the song "riot van" the best, the slow number.

I'm really not proud of a lot of what I said (ESPECIALLY the 'saviours of British rock', whoops), not to mention the manner in which I said it, but hey, a rant's a rant!

i guess i had low expectations.
a lot of it sounds like pretty typical u.s. indie rock w/english accents, but the best songs are pretty good. the lead dude has a good way about him sometimes.

i guess my default position is that every new "buzz band" of the UK is going to be a big huge pile of shit, so when something's kinda decent i'm all like "oh that's kinda nice, good for them!"

had to laugh at the reviewer here..what a shoddy review. Of course nothing in guitar based music is groundbreaking anymore,,its just impossible, its all been done before. However as someone who has not been particularly touched by anything musically since the Stone Roses debut this album is phenomenal, as good as you can get.

Someone please explain why "Fluroscent Adolescent" is meant to be a modern classic. Thanks.

alex turner is a smug, snidey little cunt.

IS he? in person? i'm genuinely surprised if so cause that's not what i've heard.
― pisces, Monday, 22 October 2007 13:55 (sixteen years ago) link
in the lyrics, obvs. i reckon he is in person as well tho.
― max r, Monday, 22 October 2007 13:57 (sixteen years ago) link
i always wondered why people go to such elaborate trouble to "pretend" they're a twat. why not spend the same amount of energy pretending to be funny and engaging and insightful?

first single sounded a bit non descript/oasis-ish

Single is a horrible choice but the last third of the record is pretty great.
― We need to talk about Bevan (DL), Wednesday, 18 May 2011 14:00 (thirteen years ago) link
it took a while to sink in but it's a pretty fine album. a couple of dud-ish trax but the good ones are a-ok-imo.
funny to read the haters up thread: pretty sure that a.turner is as far away from a snidey littlecunt as max r and others are close to it.

single worked on the letterman performance. tight band.

That single is awful.

Good album -- I guess they've entered their Morrissey circa '89 phase where it's all jangle and semi-acerbic couplets.

the lyrics he wrote for the submarine were dreadful. hopefully he doesnt overwrite the life out of each line on this album like he did there.

new single! won't win over any naysayers but it's sweet enough to be going on with
