Anyway that's just one reason why i cant stand the Arctic Monkeys, the other reasons are purely from a musical prospective.
My Reasons:
- Everyone tells me i should like them, friends, the music press, television. For gods sake stop telling me what i should like.
- Every song sounds the same, fast punk songs sung by a guy with a Yorkshire accent with lyrics that don't fit with the melody in a poor attempt to crowbar "Pulp" style story telling into the songs ( Did it never occur to them that storytelling and very fast music just don't go. Try it yourself get a karaoke machine and play American idiot by Green day but instead of singing the real lyrics, use the words from the opening chapter of Pride and prejudice. Hey maybe i should recorded that, post it on the Internet and in 6 months i might be hailed as the best thing since the Beatles).
- They have the word monkeys in their name ( i hated the Monkees). Why is it that people think calling themselves monkeys make then seem like cheeky, street wise northern geezers.
- They reference the band "The Police" in one of their songs in a lame attempt to try to associate themselves with a band consisting of talented musicians that could actually play diverse original sounding music in a variety of styles. I hate bands that try to show they are fans of other musicians in their lyrics.
- They have the word Arctic in their name. I hate the arctic, it's cold and i don't like being cold plus arctic rolls are disgusting. I have a theory, maybe be they called themselves Arctic so that they sound like really, really northern geezers, you cant get more northern than the arctic.
- They are crap ( OK not a very articulate and persuasive point but that's just how i feel)
Ok that's why i hate the Arctic Monkeys.
