Jay Tee Had A Life Before GSB Age: 35 Gender: Male Posts: 26777 | I think the main reason behind their success and charm is their honesty and that they're just a bunch of real decent lads that just want to play music and make records. Seeing as they started playing around the age of 15/16 they're pretty talented, too, to make such catchy and immense songs at such a young age. Plus the vocals and lyrics are great: they mean something to the NME-reading public, they have some pretty impressive couplets and are delivered in such an original way. Like The Streets with a Yorkshire accent, yet not losing the britpop sound. I have both the album and the recent EP and I'm looking forward to what they do next. |

Especially as the band themselves are only JUST old enough to attend their own gig... Try to get the age limit lowered to like 14, like it is around here. |
Bittersweet World Banned Age: 34 Gender: Female Posts: 28301 | 409 Coffeemaker: I tried that with Death Cab For Cutie. They dont listen. -sigh- It happened before when Motorhead came here too. Now that I was pissed off at. -sigh- Maybe next time... |
Jay Tee Had A Life Before GSB Age: 35 Gender: Male Posts: 26777 | Poprocks And Cassie: Yeah well Arctic Monkeys are, as I said, pretty decent and authentic lads. They'll probably listen to you and at least try something to help out. At least pop along to where they're paying and make a scene. If it worked for Billie Joe Armstrong at an Op. Ivy gig in the eighties, it'll work for you I'm sure. |
Bittersweet World Banned Age: 34 Gender: Female Posts: 28301 | 409 Coffeemaker: Well some people did that here for The Darkness and they ended up going out there and signing autographs. Thats still nice even though I dislike them. Hmm... I might. |
Jay Tee Had A Life Before GSB Age: 35 Gender: Male Posts: 26777 | Alternatively, you could just start up an Arctic Monkeys tribute band... Me and my friend play a couple of their songs together and once we've found a few more instrument-players we'll probably transfer them over. Songs like Fake Tales..., No Buses and A Certain Romance are great fun to play. |

Amy. Falling In Love With The Board Age: 34 Gender: Female Posts: 5239 | They're terrible >_< Bloody annoying Sheffield accents too... |
LeggomyTreggo! Shoot Me, I'm A Newbie Age: - Gender: - Posts: 35 | Jesus Christ Supermarket: I don't believe their overhyped at all. They're a very straightforward and honest band, and they don't put on some act like the little MTV suck-ups P!ATD. They know exactly what they want to do with the music they create, and it's working out for them. Even with this whole craze about being "different" in the entertainement world, the Arctic Monkeys stick to being who they are. |
Misanthropist Post Whore Age: 31 Gender: Female Posts: 23279 | Arctic Monkeys...I used to like them a lot, I overplayed them and now my feelings are not so much. |
breffers Shoot Me, I'm A Newbie Age: 35 Gender: Female Posts: 69 | i really like them, their whole album is amazing. a guy in my year is in a band and they won a battle of the bands show by playing an amazing version of 'i bet you look good on the dancefloor' it was absolutely amazing |

worn-out astronaut. Had A Life Before GSB Age: 31 Gender: Female Posts: 28177 | I love When the sun goes down |
Expressway To Yr Skull King For A Couple Of Days Age: - Gender: - Posts: 4990 | LeggomyTreggo!:Okay, their cred has nothing to do with them being over-hyped. People were calling them the new Beatles. They are not original! They're a decent band but their not that revolutionary. |
RPattz Board Parasite Age: 34 Gender: Female Posts: 38824 | Jesus Christ Supermarket: Yeah i agree with that, i mean they are a good band but they are not british musics saviour like some magazine called them, plus the got too cocky |
rollerpig GSBitch Age: 32 Gender: Female Posts: 62283 | I have their album and I really like it. They got very hyped. Sometimes deserved, sometimes overrated. |
LeggomyTreggo! Shoot Me, I'm A Newbie Age: - Gender: - Posts: 35 | Jesus Christ Supermarket: I think there's a lot in saying when a band is the next Beatles, but I do think they're having a huge impact on all of us in a great way. They are original, and the Arctic Monkeys have a lot of different ways than other bands. |
