Amazing, I love you arctic monkeys!!!!

I gotta admit i heard Humbug....I gotta thank you, you have really outdone yourselves, this album is f*cking world class....every song is different and amazing..im gonna buy the album off of i tunes just for the bonus track ....You guys said this album is a bit more experimental, well keep on experimenting!!!!ohhh Jay hoddie or watever your name is you can go f*ckyourself, Humbug tops both of the previous albums (even though they were amazing)..there is much more sound, more guitars solos, amazing riffs, the basslines are outrageous, the drums are out of this world (pretty visitors) and Alex's voice is better and his lyrics are sheer genius !!!!!Dance Little Liar (song of 2009)

okay i heard humbug. i have to say it, the albums great. the only problem i have with it is potion approaching. it just dosnt catch me. but the rest of the album is crtainly up to monkeys par. i love how every album is a new experience theyre doing what all bands should do...progress. great job lads!

The songs pretty good but the filmclip is..well, a little pansy-ish
14:09pm, 17-08-09
beccaturnipturner i think you'll be surprised by the album. i admit when i first got it (downloaded) i was alittle put off at first but it grows on you. in time i think you'll welcome the songs with the love and warmth you do the others
15:05pm, 17-08-09
the 'red right hand cover' is well done and 'I haven't got my strange' is absolutely grooving and headbanging song especially the ending of it is awesome!!! and the sound of the new album is colossal genius!!! thanx arctic monkeys for those new huge sounds!!!
