Product description

Arctic Monkeys' debut album 'Whatever People Say I Am, That's What I'm Not', topped every end-of-year poll going, and became the fastest-selling debut in British chart history. It rewired a generation, broke the boundaries between the moshpit and the dancefloor, invalidated the whole concept of celebrity culture to become that rarest of things, a smash hit with its soul intact. 'Favourite Worst Nightmare' is everything you hoped Arctic Monkeys would do next. Not so much a sequel as an upgrade, a breakneck technicolour journey through screwball punk and guitar-fuelled dancefloor heroics, it's very, very fast and very, very loud, yet at the same time boasting some of the strongest songs they've ever written. All the tracks on the album were produced by duo James Ford (The Klaxons, Mystery Jets) and Mike Crossey (Echo & The Bunnymen, The Coral) and also mainly mixed by Alan Moulder (My Bloody Valentine, Smashing Pumpkins, Yeah Yeah Yeahs). Features the single "Brianstorm"

    5.0 out of 5 stars Arctic Monkeys, Sheffield gods
    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 29 April 2007
    Verified Purchase
    There hasn't been a singer/songwriter whose warrented the title of yobbish, penultimate singer songwriter in the genre of hard knock britain since paul weller (moz werent yobbish enough), and paul weller didnt have the same sense of dry irony, wit, likability, or humour that pervades every delicously northern, gritty chav-cool lyrics as does this cheeky little sod from sheffield who looks more like he works at Tesco then front man, top guru, of the world's best band.

    Mate, you're a god. Not only did they manage, with Brianstorm, to at least match themselves with 'whatever people say i am...,' which one could rightfully expect to be next to impossible, but they've managed to make so call 'hard knock' origin bands like Oasis look like posh schoolboys.

    I love it when old fools like Keith Richards rant about how bands 'like arctic monkeys' are 's**t,' when quite simply, truth be told, bands like the Stones were nowhere near as good then, or now. I for one never bought a Stones record in my life, nor I have bought any Beatles. How many people can claim that.

    Brianstorm, the track, is a hilarious concept, apparently inspired by some weirdo who crashed their dressing room at a venue - they had a brainstorm, or, brianstorm, to try to figure him out afterwards. Should have taken his photo and put the nutter's face on the cover of their single, but that's just bad art direction at play, scant to do with the monkeys i suspect.

    Track 5, flourescent adolescent, begins with the most deliciously naughty line, now so trademark of alex and all that's inside his wicked little head 'you used to get it in your fish nets, now you only get it in your nightdress' - is just simply superb. only he can rattle off lines like that and manage to make every woman, and some men i reckon, with a pulse, swoon. we all love our bad boys, dont we.

    every song by this band - the pacing, the lyrics, the melody, the guitar playing that makes you want jump out your second story window and fly, in lustful, catharic bliss - they know how to work it, and they dont falter at any point.

    i said it before and i'll say it again, arctic monkeys will go down in history as one of the most memorable, and loved, bands on the planet.

    i werent an old tart, i'd be mad for him. spots and all.

    ps - when i write im not writing to be 'helpful' if that means spoon feeding babies with scant knowledge about music with some dire, dorky, track by track analysis, so you can refrain from clicking the dorky voting buttons, cos frankly, i don't give a s**t.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Jury still out?
    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 30 April 2007

    Sorry, this is not going to be as in-depth as some of the other ones. I don't think you can tell other people which songs are the best, which ones they should like, what stands out. Music is very personal.

    What I will say, though, is that this album is pretty much superb and more rounded, accomplished, skilled one than the first: They just got better, I think.

    The Arctics were always going to have a very difficult time putting out a second album that in any way matched up to the first one, which ended up being so hyped and was wonderful. I didn't realise how good it was for quite a while and quite a few listens, but I think this is the way with more complex lyrics; it doesn't take long to decide if you like 'Love Me Do', for instance.

    The second release is notoriously difficult and the band have done really well to produce anything nearly as good. There's also some economy in the song names as well as the album title, which is a relief. If you liked the first one, just buy it!

    5.0 out of 5 stars A CLASSIC
    Reviewed in the United States on 10 November 2024

    This album is easily tied for number one in their catalog. Every song is distinct but somehow they all fit together as well. The lyrics are crisp and the songs and they are ALWAYS playing in the pocket.

    CLASSIC
    “Do me a favor”. Go get this one.
