The title is right, people say they are good, but they're not!

Date of Review:  Mar 1, 2006
The Bottom Line: 1 good song and not a grain of originality does not a good album make, and when one is performed by an irritating wretch, it's even more unbearable.
Review: Have you ever heard people say the Internet is evil? I'm sure most of us have heard accusations along those lines thrown at the 'net, but I guess the fact we are all on this website proves nobody reading this will, strictly, adhere to it. For the...

How To Live Up To The Hype 101, By Arctic Monkeys

Date of Review:  Feb 23, 2006
The Bottom Line: Arctic Monkeys are being hyped for good reason: this debut of theirs is fan-f*cking-tastic.
Review: To be hyped as the "next big thing" is an all too common occurence in today's rock and roll scene. With no band claiming the type of legacy that Nirvana or Guns N Roses laid claim to, critics have been quick to heap praise on anyone who sounds...

I Bet You Look Just As Good On the Dusty Shelf

Date of Review:  Mar 2, 2006
The Bottom Line: If this brand of misogynistic club clangbashing is for you, you'll know.
Review: I read the headline. Arctic Monkeys' Whatever People Say I Am, That's What I'm Not has equaled first-week sales of The Beatles in the UK. And The Beatles came to mind. I pictured this Brit foursome for a while as a kind of Beatles tribute. I mean,...

Arctic Monkeys: Telling It Like It Is...

Date of Review:  Jan 26, 2006
The Bottom Line: Trust me... it's 'that' good...
Review: "Whatever People Say I Am, That's What I'm Not" is a perfect example of just how much power the internet has. A relative unknown entity in early 2005, Sheffield's Arctic Monkeys have recently spawned two number one singles, and an album that's well...

Get on Your Dancing Shoes

Date of Review:  May 22, 2007
The Bottom Line: This band received a ton of hype in the UK, and I think they deserved it.
Review: Once in a while there is a band that just comes out of nowhere to record a brilliant album and transcends the genre they record in. In 2005, that band was the Arctic Monkeys hailing from Sheffield, England. The band played an infections brand of...

The False Rock and Roll Idol of 2006

Date of Review:  Mar 7, 2006
The Bottom Line: Worth checking out but don't expect too much.
Review: There are those that would have you believe the Arctic Monkeys' debut album, Whatever People Say I am, That's What I'm Not, is a life changing experience. Hailed and hyped as "our generation's most important band", the Arctic Monkeys clearly have an...

Pretty vacants

Date of Review:  Jul 2, 2006
The Bottom Line: ARCTIC MONKEYS, the hype fullfilled
Review: Sheffield pistols ARCTIC MONKEYS are, anyway the wind blows, the greatest and most singular British act of 2006. We are still in July! Nevertheless, what can I say about the band that, during their week's debut, sold alone more than the remaining...

A great band that don't sing like americans - wow.

Date of Review:  Mar 31, 2007
Review: Haha. Ok well first off I really thought the hype about the Arctic Monkeys was just way over the top. In Australia and the UK anyway, I seriously just thought they were another band overhyped by the media. Their album has a pop-rock sound that is...

Great album

Date of Review:  Apr 6, 2006
The Bottom Line: I would recommend anyone to buy this album, whatever their preferred genre.
Review: The rock/indie music scene is not something that I'm too familiar with as it's not a genre that I've been interested in.
This album has been in my CD player now for 4 weeks solid now as each track is easy to relate and sing along too, which...

You sexy little swine.

Date of Review:  Sep 3, 2006
The Bottom Line: You want this album.
Review: I am shocked, amazed, confounded even – that no one is yet to review this album! For a band that has broken records in the UK, the US and Australia, I can honestly not believe that no one has reviewed this masterpiece. Let me be the first then.
