Gucci Piggy Posted September 3, 2013 Report Share Posted September 3, 2013 These setlists need more Dance Little Liar. Listened to the album a bit more. The second half (well, Fireside onwards) isn't very good, in my opinion. It's a nice, easy listen, but not great. Up to Mad Sounds it's really good. R U Mine?, Arabella and Mad Sounds are up there with their best stuff. I also really like Do I Wanna Know? and No. 1 Party Anthem. I'd probably rank the albums like this, currently: 1. Humbug 2. Whatever People Say I Am... 3. Favourite Worst Nightmare 4. AM 5. Suck it and See Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andre91 Posted September 3, 2013 Report Share Posted September 3, 2013 I've just listened to 'AM' for the first time. I found it very samey. It's just a bit, meh? There's a couple of really good songs on there like No.1 Party Anthem and Arabella. Obviously R U Mine and Do I Wanna Know? are great songs, as we already know. Mad Sounds isn't bad, but everything after it is just not good enough for me, sorry. Also, I don't know what is with Alex's accent, but someone needs to sit him down and remind him that he is from Sheffield, not America. "You're not from New York City, you're from Rotherham." is a bit ironic at present Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seanoooo Posted September 3, 2013 Report Share Posted September 3, 2013 I think Alex's tone and vocals on AM are the best theyve ever been. It's a very strong album. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tobieski Posted September 3, 2013 Report Share Posted September 3, 2013 I think Knee Socks is the only track on the second half of the album I really enjoy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GuitarManDan15 Posted September 3, 2013 Report Share Posted September 3, 2013 On the Alex turner accent thing people do realise you pick up an accent if youlive somewhere for an extended period of time like Alex has done. My uncle was a born and bread cockney and a when he moved to america he picked up an american accent and now he sounds just like your average america.

Com Truise Posted September 3, 2013 Report Share Posted September 3, 2013 It's not that he has an American accent, it's that he sounds like a complete bellend. And Helders hasn't had such a drastic change in his accent. They've only lived there for about 2 years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danny12345 Posted September 3, 2013 Report Share Posted September 3, 2013 Any links to download the album at all?( I have pre-ordered long ago before anybody cyber spits on me for being a dirty pirate) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

justanothername Posted September 3, 2013 Report Share Posted September 3, 2013 I was very impressed by the first half of the album very much! I'm still only listening to it and while it is good, the second half could be better. Still have 20 mins left for it to get better! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Placid Casual Posted September 3, 2013 Report Share Posted September 3, 2013 I appear to be the only one who loves Suck It And See, I'd even go as far as saying it is as good as Humbug, but that's just me. WPSIATWIN will always remain my favourite AM album The new one is on a par with FWN for me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Placid Casual Posted September 3, 2013 Report Share Posted September 3, 2013 I think that Humbug was rubbish but I haven't listen to any of Suck It Or See despite buying it like two years ago and putting it on my iTunes. It has just been there gathering dust. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Com Truise Posted September 3, 2013 Report Share Posted September 3, 2013 I'm pretty sure the majority of people on twitter who say Humbug is their favourite now, are the ones that caused Humbug to be originally underrated, cause they thought it was shit. So then people started saying it was their favourite so they could be a bit different. This happened so much that it's now their most highly rated album. A short fairytale on fangirls, by Com Truise.

Com Truise Posted September 3, 2013 Report Share Posted September 3, 2013 Of course, fangirls and fanbois could have had any number of reasons for such stuff, but life's generally a better place when you don't pay them any attention.

Chiefski Posted September 3, 2013 Report Share Posted September 3, 2013 Add another that thinks Humbug is their finest work (though I'm really enjoying the new one), they havent really had an bad record yet, only songs that arent doing much for me on the new one are Fireside and I want it all Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kaosmark2 Posted September 3, 2013 Report Share Posted September 3, 2013 Also kaosmark2 you should give AM a whirl based on what you've said about Humbug. It's streaming now I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
