Hating bands is so last century. The (not so) new wave of disliking a band says that you have to feel total indifference towards them.

ALIEN ANAL · 05.01.2007, 07:14 AM

the AM show i went to i had a hell of a time, me and my friend were asked to come back to this 30 yr old couples house to fuck his wife..who was a hot hot babe i might add...we decided they were serial killers and we would wake up with no splein the next morning and declined...but it made for a good story.

jico. · 05.01.2007, 07:15 AM

yeah, that's probably true.

being indifferent to the am is probably impossible(edit: hard at least), though.

jon boy · 05.01.2007, 07:15 AM

they dont really interest me, they are like the kaiser chiefs or razorlight one of those bands that exist but i dont trouble myself with. no doubt they will receive a lifetime acheivemnt award soon.

i heard that britpopy guitar sound and stupid smile on your face while i was reading this. it really looks like one of those funny indie stories...

ALIEN ANAL · 05.01.2007, 07:22 AM

haha
we were pretty wasted too, had a pill and a 50 of rock plus lots of alcohol and weed
it was pretty crazy when he approached us, it might of been me coming down from the drugs but for the next few days i couldnt sleep properly and couldnt stop thinking of them asking us.

lucyrulesok · 05.01.2007, 09:19 AM

the arctic monkeys are fun enough to dance around to, but i wouldn't buy their record because it's just not the sort of thing i enjoy sitting down and listening to. definitely good party music though!

Washing Machine · 05.01.2007, 11:47 AM

I really like 'When The Sun goes Down' and the brilliant extended Scummy Man short film they did for it. The album cover for Favourite Worst Nightmare is ace too. As is Bloc Party's new album cover...i won't be buying a Bloc Party album in any hurry though.

AM seem a little to much like the Libertines, just they don't do the Libertines as well. Whatever anyone wants to say about Pete, I thought the Libs were really quite a great band.

PAULYBEE2656 · 05.01.2007, 12:43 PM

first up, i think the mass popularity of the monkeys cloud the fact that they are a real good band for a bunch of, lets face it, kids who just wanna play good songs. dancefloor is a kick ass song and so is about 75% of the first album but now this new, long awated eagerly anticipated album arrived and i think its a bag of shite. thy have become so big that the music now kinda is formulaic to the point that they now have found out how to write hit songs. half the glory in the first album is that they werent trying to write hit songs..... thats the fun part, thats when talent shines, not when you become old hats at the game by the time you are 20. fair play to the monkeys th, they are gonna dissappear of my radar but not off millions of others............

_slavo_ · 05.01.2007, 01:54 PM

word, pauly, well said.

SonikJesus · 05.01.2007, 11:20 PM

I saw them at Coachella while waiting for JAMC to come on. I really enjoyed it. The music was ok but the crowd was crazy and that's what made it fun.

This is something I'd agree with... Though I think that the artic monkeys have more of a place than some other bands - and they actually do some clever things - but out of preferance I dont really like them.

whorefrost · 05.02.2007, 06:46 AM

i don't think they're all that bad.. wouldn't really actively listen to them ever, but if they come on the radio, i'll leave it on, and if i hear it in a club i don't mind too much... i think they are much better than Kaiser Chiefs, Razorlight and other bands of that ilk..

Their lyrics are vaguely interesting (on the newspaper someone compared them to Dizzie Rascal, and to a certain degree I agree with that) , but they are musically beyond dull. Either way, If somebody likes them , It's cool and all that.

ALIEN ANAL · 05.02.2007, 07:48 AM

this isnt an attack porky, but the music when you go to a live gig can you dance to it?

05.02.2007, 07:54 AM

Sure, why not?

ALIEN ANAL · 05.02.2007, 07:58 AM

im just not sure on the tunes you listen to apart from SY

05.02.2007, 08:03 AM

Disco, Techno, Hip Hop etc etc. I don't stick to anything in particular, but i have preferences in every single genre of music that i happen to know, just like anyone else. I hope it didn't come accross as i was saying that one MUST NOT like The Artic Monkeys, because that's not the case. As i posted yesterday, i probably like music thast could be considered bad by some, it's not the point, i was only expressing an opinion and not trying to tell anyone what to like or not to like.

ALIEN ANAL · 05.02.2007, 08:06 AM

yehp its cool, i agree with you.
