    Listened to the new album a few times today and i'm really impressed.

    RU Mine has been a regular on my iPod for the past few months and is one of their best. To here it live at Glastonbury was special.

    Besides RU Mine - Arabella is the stand out tune on the album for me.

    Have tickets to see them in Birmingham and Manchester in October then top it it off with a homecoming gig in Sheffield in November... :D

    Only listened to it once, but yet again they put out another great album.

  • I'll have to check it out
  • A couple of songs in the middle don't do it for me, but it's a solid album.

    this is probably their best album since Favourite Worst Nightmare and i loved their albums after that as well (Suck It & See and Humbug). Glad they added R U Mine. Other than that also digging, One For The Road, Arabella, Snap Out Of It and I Want It All.

  • Loving this new album! Probably my favorite of theirs. I'm a huge QOTSA fan so I love the Josh Homme influence on their sound. Not really feeling the slow songs, No 1 Party Anthem & Mad Sounds, but other than that, this is a solid album.

    Anybody else hear Black Sabbath's War Pigs in Arabella? Just a few guitar notes, but wow... can't really miss it.

    Same here! I'm loving R U Mine and Arabella.

    Yes!
    did you see me? i saw you.

    seeing them tonight :D

    Looking at their set list though it's basically the same ones with a few mixed up. I'm more looking forward to hear how the new songs sound live.

    very cool concert. Enjoyed hearing the new songs live especially Arabella, Knee Socks, and One For The Road. They also debuted No. 1 Party Song live which was cool (not a huge fan of the song) but cool nonetheless. But the coolest part was at the very end. Some dude in the audience had a GoPro on his hat or something and Alex noticed it and wanted to borrow it and put it on Matt's head so he drummed with it on during R U Mine. I had no idea what it was at first, thought it was just a hat or something. D

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=owDCmU7lLN0

    Setlist:
    Do I Wanna Know?
    Brianstorm
    Dancing Shoes
    Don't Sit Down 'Cause I've Moved Your Chair
    Teddy Picker
    Crying Lightning
    Snap Out of It
    Brick by Brick
    Old Yellow Bricks
    Why'd You Only Call Me When You're High?
    Arabella
    Pretty Visitors
    I Bet You Look Good on the Dancefloor
    Cornerstone
    No. 1 Party Anthem
    Fluorescent Adolescent
    Knee Socks

    Encore:
    One for the Road
    Do Me a Favour
    R U Mine?

    Holy shit! That's freaking awesome! And the guy got his hat back to post the video!
    Nice setlist too. Pretty jealous. They just played Boston on Tuesday but I wasn't able to go, even if I had been able to get tix which sold out in less than a minute for the less than 1,000 capacity venue. :( Maybe next time.

    Im loving the new album. Certainly in the running for rock album of the year for me. Shit, I think I may even like it better than the new QOTSA album, which I thought at one point was going to be my rock album of the year.

    I like how Alex Turner describes the new album. "It sounds like a Dr Dre beat, but we've given it an Ike Turner bowl-cut and sent it galloping across the desert on a Stratocaster."

    I keep listening to that Drake cover too. Its perfect for them right now, and they rock it out. So much better than the original version which sounds like a bad 80's song.

    Listened to the new album last night - first Arctic Monkeys album I've heard since their debut. Very impressed, think I'll have it on rotation and also try and give the previous records a chance. Couple of songs in the middle didn't do much but overall on first listen I really like the new album

    I would go with their sophomore album if, Favourite Worst Nightmare, if you have their first album already.

    I got tix for Boston, because the Boston show is the day before the 1st Boston Radiohead show.  

    And I live in DC... this is gonna be hard to explain to my husband and kid!  "Mommy will be in Boston from Fri - Mon morning... it's a work conference... where I'll be working at rocking out 3 days in a row.  That's all you need to know, the rest you don't have high enough security clearance to know." :D
