The fastest selling debut album in history - 363 000 copies.
Anyone else think they sound like George Formby

Tickets for their tour go on sale on Thursday.
Half a dozen bought, & then stuck on Ebay, would probably get you out to the US for one of the Sisters shows.

I hope the editor of the Daily Star is reading this. He's probably going to snap up Blast & Corleone for his new music review column.

I just don't get'em... maybe I'm getting old. but I just don't get'em, on any level.
It's like The Fog unrated version. I'd rate it, rate it as complete pish!! the original was excellent

You do realise that, as night follows day, tartan slippers are a sure step towards Spontaneous Human Combustion

ah, but george formby was a consummate proffesional with an endearingly self-dprecating style and a chirpy buck-toothed grin that won him the hearts of the nation; arctic monkeys are just cu
nts.

sisxbeforedawn -the horror of our generation however is that whereas our parents and grandparents were appalled at the godless cacophony and depravity of the music / fashion their offspring brought home, our kids are listening to such watered-down, insipid sanitisations of rock/metal/whatever that you feel sorry for them. nu metal -as i've said before - is a fine example of taking a notoriously in-your-face style of music and removing all the intensity, all the angst, all the raw power and leaving just a pale timid creature completely devoid of sex,drugs,and rock'n'roll.

-nu-metal kids even wear flares -'nuff said.

Arctic Monkeys:
Was it someone on here who said that they'll wish in a couple of years that they'd waited until their acne cleared up before they got famous?

I think they're crap. No surprise they're popular then.

They do have one redeeming characteristic...
No other band's song would have sounded as funny when Choque started chanting it after the last chords of Burning From The Inside faded
