God, you are ALL idiots. Everyone has their own opinion about what band sucks or not, but Arctic Monkeys and the Strokes have nothing to do with each other. At all.
shut up man you covered green day, since the day you decided to cover them you lost right to vote and say who is good and bad cus apparently you are talent-blind
@nirson123 ya greenday sucks good for u for noticing that, what do mean i have lost the right to vote? who the fuck are you? the strokes suck period their songs are so boring and repetative and the singer sounds like hes fucking dieing
@Puregeniuscomedy Man you are fucking stupid, I mean who are you to say who sucks and who doesn't? The strokes are classics and without them there wouldn't be any Arctic Monkeys...anyway I didn't expect something intelligent from someone who is a fan of greenday, who are the most repetitive band ever...
@0jhskat3r Im sure it cant be a strat unless Alex replaced the pick guard. you cant get black bodies with black pick guards on strats straight from the shop i dont think :P. its sexy anyhow
the reason some ppl don't like it is because they saw the video first, about the girl about to comit suicide. "this is a good idea, you wouldn't do it if it wasnt" they thought that ment its ok to do something like that.
it's better than their 2nd album. They were listening to alot of Hendrix and cream when writing the songs. V different. V. Good, but I don't think the lyrics suit the music
It seems like all of their songs have epic endings. This song, A Certain Romance, From the Ritz to the Rubble, The Jewler's Hand (different type of ending, but great all the same), 505, Do Me a Favour, i could keep going..
Why do they always screw up the names. I remember they called Bloc Party's "So Here We Are" "Two More Years". Now they call "Leave Before The Lights Come On" "You Probably Couldn't See For The Lights"
Actually this song was written about when u know someone when are drunk at night,and they seem special, but when you wake up u look they arent, so thats leave before the lights come on, so u dont have to see what u have done Its amazing how he turn an ordinary day into something really good and with great meaning. I WALK U UP, WHAT TIME THE BUS COME? GREAT ROCK ON.
There's a song that the line, "Quick let's leave before the lights comon"... reminds me a lot of... It's like an oldie or something, I forget, but does someone know?
Jesus, you have to get your head round the fact that guitar players use more than one instrument. For the record, I've seen him play an arctic white mex Strat, an olympic white US Strat, A black/white US strat, A Gretsch Spectrasonic, some sort of Gibson semi-acoustic, similar to that which Cook plays and finally of course the now de rigeur black Fender Bronco. Amps were AD30s now they're BadCats, pedals were Rat2s, they're now a mixture of Ibanez Tube Screamers and an EH memory man deluxe.
