When I went on at midnight there was the two singles and also the title track which I don’t think was meant to be released as they’ve since deleted it from my library From what I’ve read they accidentally put the album online a few hours ago but realised quite quickly and have managed to stop any major leaks. Poor guy though, Pure Comedy leaked a couple of months early too from what I remember. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Odessa Posted April 18, 2018 Report Share Posted April 18, 2018 Someone on reddit found this review of the new Arctics album. I think it sounds interesting. Seems like there is going to be a single, Four Out Of Five, but it doesn't say if it'll come out before the album or not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What a fuck up (although I’m looking forward to listening). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On my first listen just now and the tone of it is somewhere between Honeybear and Pure Comedy, though definitely more in line with the former.

Might see some tickets pop up on Twickets at this rate... The last slow burner they released has proven to be their best, I wonder if this only got 7/10 as the reviewer deems AM a masterpiece. Looks like I left the Arctic Monkeys facebook group just in time anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It does sound like it's gonna go down badly for the people wanting instant bangers but that's their problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds not far removed from the recent (excellent) Last Shadow Puppets LP except the shadow of Miles Kane isn't hanging over it. I know it's gonna be hard to take for people who think they peaked on Whatever People Say I Am and are put off now Alex has confidence now but the chamber pop thing is very much Turner's sweet spot, so a very exciting review. But the fella with the magazine coulda thrown a sock on ffs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mash011 Posted April 18, 2018 Report Share Posted April 18, 2018 That new arctics sounds very intriguing indeed. Got the new FJM downloaded for my train home tonight, looking forward to that! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FloorFiller Posted April 18, 2018 Report Share Posted April 18, 2018 New FJM is much easier to digest than Pure Comedy, and on first listen I really like it. Sounding a lot more like Honeybear for the most part. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it was only James Blake's record I preferred that year, maybe The 1975's too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mash011 Posted April 18, 2018 Report Share Posted April 18, 2018 Quite disappointed with this FJM record tbh. Certainly some nice moments but it didn't make much of an impression, just felt like a collection of very MOR songs. Will continue to mine it for what gold is there but yeah, let down.

mjsell Posted April 18, 2018 Report Share Posted April 18, 2018 Just caught up with the last 8(!) pages of this thread after being MIA. Genuinely think this thread is one of the best on the entire interwebs. Anyway, thanks for some good recommendations. Specifically Confidence Men - There needs to be more albums made like this.
