I think the problem with comparing bands is that when you have an infatuation with a certain band, you're going to think they're better than any other band because of your personal preference. Stop comparing amazing bands because it's pointless.. they're all great in different ways. Comment on the actual music/performance :]
you've gotta ask yourself, is alex turner nearly as talented as any of the members of the beatles? i tell you what. he's not far off, arctic monkeys best band since beatles? please reply anyone!!! lol
@londonboymike i could probably agree with that...they need more albums to really compete with the beatles..but i think they could do it, including tlsp
I heard this when i first started listning to AM back in 08. thought they were fantastic. but now i've gotten older and I really appreciate these guys as musicians. i recently just got all their b-sides and singles off EP's and stuff. alex can be up there as one of the best musicians and song writers. AM is just simply tops right now though, and their only 25 years old which is remarkable.
As good as the beatles?... we will see when their done making music
dont ever say alex isnt good cuz he didnt play for that long before the first album and dancefloors intro and solo is good for that, could u invent something that good after only playin for like 2 year... fastest selling album ever
i respect al genres of music... but tbh indie just all he others arseholes!!!!!!!!!!!! arctic monkeys are possibly the best thing sincee sliced wite bread tbf!!
Wow i love indie music alot but seriously. If you people new anything about music at all? you would know that metal is a harder genre....Metals repetitive? what? you have just said metal is repetitive? on a indie video hahahaha silly person. metal isnt dead also, far from it
yeah, I definitely have to agree with you. not only did the AM image changed, but their music did too. I'm not saying it's a bad change, but I can't help but feel nostalgic whenever I watch videos of their older performances
same! I know it was natural for them to grow up and change, but I still miss when Alex looked like a schoolboy who accidentally wandered onto the stage...he was so cute!
I know alex is the writer of the songs and guitar, but i think, although it may be more effort, jamie should get more chances for lead guitar, as alex seems to play the more complex stuff whilst singing, i think that is why jamie is bored =)
I hate people who pretend to know what they're talking about. If you truly had any musical knowledge, you would at least appreciate the technical prowess of the majority of metal bands.
I'm not asking you to like metal, but at least respect it.
In my opinion, metal, jazz and classical music are the only genres that show true musical virtuosity.
@xDreamTheater92 I like indie and metal. They are both genres I respect. You can't know how good a guitarist he is because his genre does not allow him to show his skills off as much as metal can. Obviously he is not at Paul Gilbert, Steve Vai etc standard's but thats because he is not trying to be an amazing guitarist he just wants to play a couple of chords.
@colosalblack well you kinda can tell how good of a guitarist he is with the sorta things he is playing whereas you think hes playing because they sound nice (which they do) hes playing them cos hes limited skill wise. If he had the talent he would use it, like anyone would. Im not saying his a bad guitarist but hes not an amazing ones as previously stated in the comments stream. Dont think im hating on AM because they are one of my all time fave bands. Peace.
Alex turner isn't amazing skill-wise at guitar. However, he is a great songwriter (one of the best in my opinion), is good at coming up with catchy chord patterns, and can sing and play well. Now dont think i'm hating on the arctic monkeys, because they are by FAR my favorite band. Just saw them last night, it was awesome
Jamie is the lead guitarist in some old AM pieces, in later songs he is like a keyboardist with a bunch of guitar effects, making unique sounds in the background. He is looking for a new dimension
probably the most overrated band out there, except for oasis, compared to bands like the skids n razorlight there like gettin raped by someone with aids
jamies looking at his guitar more because he can, alex is the singer he has to maintain contact with the audience while playing. since he's been doing that for years ofcourse he can look more natural while doing his thing
I have to disagree, I think it has to do with confidence more than skill. I do think Alex is a more accomplished guitarist than Jamie, but I wouldn't put him down so easily, just watch him in songs like "The View from the Afternoon", he plays those fast chord changes confidently and easily.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
I agree with that but jamie just does the basics where as alex does the complecated parts, so im saying that jamie is not as good musician than alex is
yeah alex is insanely talented.. he sings brianstorm and plays that main riff, which even as an experienced guitarist is super hard. plus you know, those solos lol
Thank god we can listen some quality ROCK BAND, got tired of copy/paste songs, music as well, all look a like, and they are REAL REFRESHMENT IN THE WORLD OF MUSIC!!!!
your so freaking lucky you got to be so close to them! ahh i need to go to one of their concerts when they hopefully have tours in the U.S. again! jamies so attractive!!!!!!!
