I retract my previous statement, this album is a solid 12/10

Good punk isn’t bad.

Almost perfect, I can't put my finger on it. That X factor is just missing for me, very good album regardless.

This comment is beneath your viewing threshold.

Sheffield's answer to Robert Zimmerman comes over all poetic following 12 pints of Hoffmeister on a Saturday night.

Their best album. It's my favourite album from them. Such a great album.

An incredible debut. Came in on a massive hype wave, and actually exceeded its expectations. This remained my favorite album of theirs until 2013, when AM was released. Still, a great catchy punk album.

If I were to recommend an Arctic Monkeys album, I will always start here. As far as kick your ass post punk rock, this must be in the top 3 of that category. I'm in a massive Arctic Monkeys kick, and this is the cherry on top, and the ice cream, and the condiments, and the bowl... and the spoon.

Ritmi ossessivi forse per andare incontro al "mordi e fuggi" tipico del periodo ( ma pure di adesso… ), un urlare che sa più di isteria che di rabbia, una qualità della scrittura appena sufficiente. Detto questo e presi per quello che sono, gli Arctic Monkeys di questo esordio sono discreti.

Wish their other stuff was like this.
