Guys, Matt is a great drummer but he isn't the best. I think he's amazing at what he does but there's better drummers out there in music not as mainstream.
the fact that matt helders couldnt really play drums before arctic monkeys and only played them because it was the only thing left is just unbelievable
I listen to them since I was 12 and now I'm 16! Still love them though! Can't wait to see them live! Greetssssssssss from Holland! Love you Matthew LOL!
did you actually know that matt began with playing the drums because that was the only missing instrument for the band, and look now at the best drummer of the century
@blah14ify not actually got lessons but he said he was very influenced by joey, and arctic monkeys were influenced by QOTSA too, you can clearly see that on humbug, and yeah joey's a monster LoL
I love the monkeys! everything they do is amazing, even there new freaky shit is amazing!
i would do anything to be like them, my band is a new indie rock band with what we see as a new sound thats not the same as every other band, and we'd love for some people to click the link to my page and tell me what you think, and what we could improve on? sorry if this seems like spam, but just want to share our sound with the world!
the arctic monkeys are showing the world how they're growing up in the musical sense. Every record is like 10 times better than the previous one. This song is absolutely perfect, i has those 'climate' swaps that omg!... These guys keep amazing me, year after year, song by song, record after record!
@Purerockband I havn't ment it that way. I think in his job as producer he leaded them and helped them to advance their music, for example to try out something new, to reach another level.
last month rollingstone made an issue on the 500 greatest songs ever, and every song (except for say, 10) where from between the '60's and the '80's.. that's so stupid.
this song should be there, as well as many other arctic monkeys songs.
Oh by the way, you don't have to be a hipster to love Arctic Monkeys. These boys have talent beyond potential. Their B-Sides are superior to most bands lead singles.
I'd go as far to say Matt Helders is the best drummer of the 21st century and the band definitely one of the best bands of the 21st century. Alex turner is a genius lyrically this band has developed into a much more mature high quality band. The lyrics explore deeper emotions and modern concepts rather than chav-ridden love stories.
@MustBeMagick Sadly people will not move on, If it isn't 60s/70s/80s it cannot be the best.
Watching the cover of The view from the afternoon/Brianstorm/Pretty visitors from that Ginger dude made me appreciate Helders work more, he is one hell of a drummer. FWN was my favourite AM album so i hope they make some tunes like that on the next album, it's still dark but had more catchy tunes IMO.
I just have to say....I love, love, love AM....love their first, second, and third albums....love their progression in sound throughout the 3....and yeah...Alex Turner...totally kills :)...just cant get enough of this band <3
Get used to it. Their old stuff is different. It's gonna have ripples of indifference. I love the old stuff more but also love the new stuff. The transition may take a while. This song is ace though.
humbug is easily their best album and the people who disagree aren't very knowledgeable about music, just more knowledgeable about being a teenager. CONTROVERSY.
Although humbug was arguably the more inferior album to its predecessors it really defined their flexibility and development as a band whilst still kicking ass
alex looks like nick form the strokes lol
