Arctic Monkeys

Funny how it seems I am circling around to the same artists... but in this case it's again totally worth it.

The new Arctic Monkeys will be out soon. I have only listened to the full record once, so again no scoring yet. But I will say it's different from the first record in that it grooves more and is less jarring than the first. I don't know if that's a good thing yet or not.

But I can say that the first single, "Brianstorm," is a banger. It's definitely the album's immediate standout, so they chose wisely. Hard, fast and surprisingly "large" sounding for the indie darlings. We're talking arena rocker. And I give it a 9.
