Like Franz Ferdinand, I thought people would be bored by the second album.Never got the arctic monkeys,back in 2004 thought they were shite, thought they'd disappear after 1 album. And here we still are.

I just don’t get the hate for Arctic monkeys …I get that the last few albums were “different”… I’m not a big fan of them. I think it’s some kinda jealousy.
They are / were a bunch of normal northern lads who wrote some cracking tunes…and made it big. They grew and developed into rock stars…and are completely playing the game.
Turner famously said/sang he just wanted to be in the Strokes….it’s ok for guys from New York to be cool rock stars, but how dare 4 blokes from Sheffield?
Fair fucks to them….brilliant band

The next two albums after the second one are good, that's when they totally moved away from being a Libertines sound a like, but recently they've gone all elevator/lounge easy listening for some reason.There’s no way on earth this performance happens if they hadn’t made it big and were still hungry. They’ve lost a massive edge that made them such a success off their first two albums.
Can say they can take it in whatever direction they want now they are on the world stage and fair enough. But this is stage school stuff and for me it’s a shame. Not rock and roll like it was to begin with.

Yep and it went into the charts at No.1 as well. I thought it was going to flop and the public got bored.They made a second album?
All five albums have gone top 10, the last one so far was 2018.
