  1. I'll give my two cents. I'm an old school Monkeys fan. Their early stuff Eps, big fan of their first four albums. A few tracks off of AM were good, but overall, I wasn't a giant fan of that record. Not to mention, their fan base took a real turn for the worst. Now when you see them, it's just a bunch of fangirls on their phones taking pictures of Alex. After the first two listens of this album, I'm again, not really a fan of where they're going. Lyrically, it's not strong (that right off the bat lyric about The Strokes is extremely cringeworthy. Not to mention "kiss me underneath the moon's side boob"... Come on AT. 

     

    As many have mentioned, it feels like this album shouldn't be an Arctic Monkeys record, but more so an Alex Turner featuring the Arctic Monkeys release. I wouldn't be surprised if they break up or go on an indefinite hiatus after this album cycle. I know he's trying to showcase his Bowie influence, but it doesn't really work here. I do feel like over time, this has potential to grow on me a bit more, but for right now, I'm not a fan.

    Fine. I'll drop money on this, the Eccentric Soul's I wanted and now the Technicolor Paradise release which sounds awesome. I should have gone to the pop up to save on shipping (and maybe tax?) and to have Technicolor early, but I wanted a nap after getting up at 4a.

     

    No tax. It was $80 flat at the pop up shop yesterday. Shocked it didn't sell out quick. By the time it was opened, there were maybe 20 people in line. First guy and his wife got there at 6:30 in the morning. My buddy and I were second and third in line and got there around 8:45ish. 

  3. Put this in the online sales thread, but thought I would also drop it in here. Yesterday, Numero Group released a limited to 100 pressing on "skittles" colored vinyl of their Savage Young Du boxset at their Chicago pop up shop. I was able to snag one, but their remaining stock is now online.
