Arctic Monkeys turn to Kylie and Beyonce for inspiration
2 days ago

The Arctic Monkeys are about to embark on a nationwide arena tour. I wasn’t that impressed by their performance at Reading but I think they’d be better in an arena setting, especially after they revealed how they’ve been getting inspiration to the NME:I’d never been to a gig in an arena. But recently, knowing we’ve [...]

Arctic Monkeys + The Like - Wonder Ballroom (MFNW 2009; Sept. 18)
about 1 month ago

Last night, Arctic Monkeys pulled one of my favorite moves: they didn’t play it safe. Yeah, they could have come out, played every hit, every danceable number, maybe appease the people who came for a few songs or just to say they went, but instead, they said to the crowd, “we are artists, and we know where we want to take you.” That is what separates the men from the boys. And since they are

Arctic Monkeys – Humbug review
about 1 month ago

Arctic Monkeys has always been a polarizing band among my friends. I don’t really know anyone who is just “okay” with the Arctic Monkeys. They’re either overrated simpletons or melodic geniuses. I’ve always veered closer to the latter side and this album does well to solidify my position.Unsurprisingly, Humbug displays a more mature, less danceable [...]Related posts:Arctic Monkeys – C

Review: Arctic Monkeys - Humbug (* * * *)
2 months ago

For the first few years of their mostly acclaimed career Arctic Monkeys had failed to really impress me – that is to say, live up to my lofty expectations incurred by their many adoring fans and critics. Admittedly, I understand the appeal of the group’s dark, sexy rock ‘n’ roll and found the occasional single to be enjoyably infectious and fun, but I felt the band failed to conjure m

Arctic Monkeys "Humbug": Victims of Identity Theft?
2 months ago

In 2006, the Arctic Monkeys made their debut with the verbosely titled and monstrously popular Whatever People Say I Am, That’s What I’m Not. The effortless post-punk album claimed fans instantly and remains the fastest-selling band debut. The boys had a neatly executed follow up in their second studio album, Favourite Worst Nightmare, which, despite some weighty elements added to the mix, rem

I bet you (yes, YOU) look good on the dance floor...

Out there, somewhere, is a bizzare alternate reality where feudal law still governs society. a realm populated by serfs and lords, knights and scoundrels, and - of course - jesters like me and mintsrels galore. In this case, the cross-vortex famed Arctic Monkeys are the official house band for Castro's Cuba, and they play nightly at the dreamer's ball. to enhance the comparator experience i...

A 15-year-old dream coming true
7 months ago

I've been dreaming about attending a gigantic festival ever since I started buying music magazines and reading reviews about them. True, it doesn't compare to seeing a band in an intimate venue, but it has a charm of its own. It's an experience, one which I never had before. Festivals in Greece are very small (2 stages tops), and I've only been at a small one in London and one with a well-behav...

Let me count the ways I love the NEW ARCTIC MONKEYS SONG
4 months ago

1. Aw bleep it, I hate math. All I can say is that I do love it. The low addictive vocals, the lyrics, the atmosphere, that it's not immediately catchy and might take more than one listens (yes, I actually like that), the drumming, the sonic waves it washes over my ears, the fact that it shows that they're evolving in a good way, the the the...I've been waiting for it in agony and excitement.Wh...

*Betty and the Werewolves show* [http://www.myspace.com/bettyandthewerewolves]Met up with Lizzie and her fantastic, music-loving mother for the first time, had good Thai and proceeded to the King's Cross venue, which is a lovely one (you can't go wrong with a bar/venue which has a lamp that instead of normal lamp parts has female legs in heels and a skirt).I discovered that Lizzieness is fun, p...
