At the Apollo is a standard new millennium live album: it's a multimedia experience containing a DVD and a CD, but unlike so many of these sets, this doesn't replicate the show on video and audio. Instead, the DVD has the titular At the Apollo -- the Manchester Apollo, not the one in Harlem -- and the CD contains a live set recorded that same tour in Austin, TX.

VINYL FORMAT. This pre-album single serves to prepare you for the full-length onslaught that is the rocking brilliance of Favourite Worst Nightmare. Like some cruel bait-and-switch, this record opens with a lovely string quartet before a rude intrusion of frantic drums and squealing guitars send them packing (apparently inspired by The Jesus Lizard no less). The second track, "Brianstorm" barrels out of the gate with an itchy energy. "Temptation Greets You Like Your Naughty Friend" is a taut, suspens   [ read more ]

Breathless praise is a time-honored tradition in British pop music, but even so, the whole brouhaha surrounding the 2006 debut of the Arctic Monkeys bordered on the absurd. It wasn't enough for the Arctic Monkeys to be the best new band of 2006; they had to be the saviors of rock & roll.

VINYL FORMAT. While this sophomore release is unmistakably Arctic Monkeys, everything's a little more muscular and aggressive. Each song is embedded with revelatory moments, as if some sort of critical mass is achieved through skillful song craft and sharp arrangements until an explosive release of energy or emotion is inevitable. Arctic Monkeys have exceeded expectations with this record.
