'' Mr 10 Posts A Day ''
Arctic Monkey's debut album, released on 23rd January. The album was originally slated for release on the 30th, but Domino have pushed it forward a week:
''People are always putting albums back so we thought it would be fun to bring some forward. We did the same with Franz Ferdinand. The manufacturing went quicker than anticipated and the thinking is that the albums are going to do more good if they are in the shops rather than sat in the Domino warehouse for an extra week. And the sooner people can hear this incredible record the better. It's going to be the soundtrack to 2006.''
I downloaded it because i couldn't wait, but i also have a copy pre-ordered through Amazon.co.uk.
Tracklist:
1. The View From The Afternoon
2. I Bet You Look Good On The Dancefloor
3. Fake Tales Of San Francisco
4. Dancing Shoes
5. You Probably Couldn't See For The Lights But You Were Looking Straight At Me
6. Still Take You Home
7. Riot Van
8. Red Light Indecates Doors Are Secured
9. Mardy Bum
10. Perhaps Vampires Is A Bit Strong But...
11. When The Sun Goes Down
12. From Ritz To The Rubble
13. A Certain Romance
Most of the songs have just been re-recorded from the demo 'Beneath The Boardwalk', which has been available for free online for almost a year now, so not much new if you've been following the Monkeys for a while.
Still, it's a great album which is very well written and i would probably give it an 8/10. The best album of 2006 so far, much better than The Strokes' disapointing effort.
Thoughts anyone ?
