"It's deeeeecent, tell em lad" - Joe Hart.

Was good respect the effort but not anything special tbh

Amazing voice

Exquisite

Guitar

Oooh yeh

Enjoyed

Extremely okay

Wasnt to sure about it from first few tracks. But 'one to another' onwards was completely on board. Madchester innit

Frankly, don't know if it's a coincidence or not that I got this recommended the day after the Queen died, but was going to listen anyway. Very goooood

I like it a lot

Yes.

Upon its release this album became the fastest selling debut album of all time, in the UK, and it still holds that record. The album sparked a cultural revolution in Britain which no band has come close to since, most new UK bands now try to sound like Arctic monkeys. Alex turner's lyrics perfectly describe a night out in a northern town, in England, with witty lyrics accompanied by raw sounding guitars and creative riffs. Matt helders also provides hard hitting drum tracks. Best tracks: view from the afternoon, fake tales of San Francisco, when the sun goes down, mardy bum, a certain romance. Worst tracks: no bad tracks imo. Easily one of my favourite albums ever made.
