So... The new album then... well? - Expect Spoilers.

And I still don't get She's All That.

With you on that count..

And I'm starting to think that I really need to get these Japanese bonus tracks. :/

I've never clicked with She's All That either. I was lucky enough to get backstage after the Bristol gig and drunkenly told Rich and CJ that i thought it was the only weak point on the album. Rich was cool but CJ didn't look too impressed. Did he have a bigger hand in that particular song?

Anyhoo, what's happened to The New Flesh single? If it dosn't arrive with the Japanese bonus tracks as b-sides i'll have to get the import as well, shouldn't really have to buy the same cd twice though just for a couple of purported b-sides though....

Theres a good review for it here

Whuch just reminded me of this one from South Wales whats on guide "Buzz"...same score out of 5 as the last Arctic Monkeys album, and the only album reviews i could find that got 5/5 were compilations...(Im not a monkeys fan, just thought I'd mention it though)


There was a positive album review and Cardiff gig review a few months back in the local Big Issue, havent got that around to scan though...

That's spot on about spine tingling moments!

I got my first one in the sweetest thing - that ace riff just after the second verse and before the chorus, and have also had one on rooting for the bad guy where the final chorus comes in after the big interlude.

I seem to be the only one who doesn't get slaughtered authors - don't think it's bad, just not one of my faves

You're not alone. Its actually one of my least favorites. I usually skip over it.

3 favs are:

Rooting For The Bad Guy
The Revolution Will Be Televised
Bi-Polar Baby

the chorus for Slaughtered Authors is just monumental

the way it builds up and swaggers along still sounding impassioned and haunting.just pure quality

i always thought that song would have made a good video as well.
