Arctic Monkeys
Evilpopsicleguy:
man, you guys make not enjoying things into an art.
I mean, to all their own and all that, but I haven't even heard any reasonings as to what makes them bad. all I hear are "blah blah blah overrated blah pretention blah hate". I guess blatant disgust is the new constructive criticism!
Kai:
How about this: THEY'RE BORING.
Course, I can say that about most of the bands people talk about here, so don't mind me.

Well its not like the Arctic Monkees are sitting somewhere and reading the QC forums to see what we think of them- so I'm not sure what the point of constructive criticism would be. Plus it isn't as if you've given sound reasoning behind your liking them. You've just said they're pretty good and sound like indie-esque Beatles. A statement which, while being both false and meaningless, is pretty much code for "sounds just like everything else".
Were you not expecting a bunch of people to post their opinions on the band when you started this thread? :-)
The Tiny Mix Tapes review pretty much nails it: http://www.tinymixtapes.com/musicreviews/a/arctic_monkeys.htm
Emma:
I think they got big too quickly so they'll fade out pretty quick too. They're fun and I don't mind listening to them but I wouldn't make the effort of going to buy the album.
sam@cracker:
i bought the album last week and i'm very impressed. who cares if they disappear tomorrow? the point is to enjoy music, tastes are diffrent.
ps. i think that 'Mando Diao' sounds a hell lot more like the beatles.
