Arctic Monkeys

ARTIST MAINARTIST INFORELATED ARTISTSLINKSREVIEWS

By distilling the sounds of Franz Ferdinand, the Clash, the Strokes, and the Libertines into a hybrid of swaggering indie rock and danceable neo-punk, Arctic Monkeys became one of the U.K.'s biggest bands of the new millennium. Their meteoric rise began in 2005, when the teenaged bandmates fielded offers from major labels and drew a sold-out crowd to the London Astoria, using little more than a self-released EP as bait. Several months later, Whatever People Say I Am, That's What I'm Not became the fastest-selling debut album in British history, entrench...[more]

VINYL FORMAT. Much has been made of what an "internet sensation" the Arctic Monkeys have become, but it's obvious after five weeks in the UK Top 10 with their Domino debut single that it's much more than that. They have the songs and the live shows to back it up. Alex Turner's lyrics paint detailed pictures that take the street documentary eye of a hip-hop emcee and cross it with the distinctly British observational styles of Davies and Weller.

VINYL FORMAT. Humbug, the third album from Sheffield's Arctic Monkeys, finds the band brimming with vim, vigor and new ideas. They brought in a new production accomplice, Josh Homme (Queens of the Stone Age), for some of the recording. He generously hosted and produced tracks with them at his Joshua Tree studio. Then they rejoined forces with James Ford (Simian Mobile Disco), producer of the previous two Arctic Monkeys and Last Shadow Puppets albums, in Brooklyn, NY to complete the tracks that became   [ read more ]

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.

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 ]
